Managing student accounts on EP

Teachers are able to quickly and easily create new student accounts, edit their details, and shuffle them into different classes. This article explains how.

In this article:

Before we begin:

If your school is integrated with Wonde, you will be unable to make changes to your classes. Accounts need to be managed via your school’s Student Management System. Find out more here.

  • If you wish to add many students, we recommend that you:
  • Avoid creating duplicate accounts. This helps keep progress all in one place and prevents confusion around licensing.

If you are needing to update the details of a certain student account, the quickest and easiest way to locate them is within the People section of your schools settings space. To get there, you'll need to click on the cog down the bottom of your left-hand navigation and then the People section.

Here you can search for and access the desired student account in order to update their details. You can also utilise the filters to only show student accounts.

Details that you're able to update are:

  • First Name
  • Surname
  • Email/Username
  • LTI Identifier (where applicable)

Note: Updating Parent Emails on student will currently need to be actioned via our Support Team while we build out this functionality for teachers and school administrators to update this themselves. Please contact support@educationperfect.com if you need these values updated on your accounts.

You can also locate accounts for students who are enrolled in classes assigned to you by navigating to the required class, and then clicking the People tab. You'll then be able to click into any student account to access their details.

To find students in other classes, click the Classes button in your left-hand navigation and then All classes.

Adding students to your school

If you have one or multiple student accounts that need to be added to your school, you can do so via the People space of your School Settings. To get there, you'll need to click on the cog down the bottom of your left-hand navigation and then the People section. Click the Add dropdown and select Students.

Adding students to classes

To add students to classes, first locate the class from either the My classes or All classes spaces. Once you've clicked into class, navigate to the People tab and click the +Add button.

In the prompt that appears, you have two options:

  1. You can search for any students with existing accounts to add to your class. If they don’t yet have an existing account, you’ll be given the option to create one.
  2. You can toggle over to Link or join code that can be shared with your students, this will enable them to add themselves to your class. This option works for new and existing student accounts.

Find out more about managing class join codes here. Students can add themselves to your class by following these instructions.

When adding students directly, try different iterations (e.g. Matt vs Matthew).

Removing students from a class

In order to remove a student from your class, navigate to the People tab of your class. You can then click the trash can icon beside the required student(s) in order to remove them from your class.

Deactivating students

To deactivate a student account, you'll need to click on the student in order to view their account details. From here, you'll be able to click the Deactivate button. This will remove the account from all their classes and deactivate their account. More information to do with this can be found here.
