Letting students practise from home

If your school has home access, students can sign in to the Individual Edition at home with a 4-digit login code instead of their password. Each code works on one device.

The school's login code

Students also need your school's Student Login Code. Find it under School Settings → School Profile, and Copy it. Generate a new code replaces it; the old one stops working straight away, so every student needs the new one.

The Off-School tab

On the Students page, switch from School (sign-in at school with username and password) to Off-School (home sign-in with a 4-digit code, one device per student).

Each student shows their login code and their device: No device, or Bound to a device since a date.

  • Regenerate: sign out the current device and issue a new code.
  • Revoke: turn off home sign-in for the student.
  • Reinstate: give home sign-in back, with a fresh code.

Tick several students to do this for all of them.

Seats

Home access is counted in seats: a seat is used when a student signs in on a device, not when you hand out a code. The banner shows how many seats are in use. When the limit is reached, revoke a student who no longer needs home access to free a seat.

Students see how to sign in at Signing in with a school or centre code.
