How to Add a Student in Spellings for Me

Important Note:

If you need to add a full class, multiple classes, or an entire school, it is recommended to use the bulk import file for efficiency. The single-user add method is best for adding one to three students at a time.

Method 1: Adding a Student from the Teacher Dashboard

(Available to Teachers and School Administrators)

Navigate to the Teacher Dashboard.

Click on the Add New Student button.

Enter the student’s first name and surname.

Select the class the student will be placed into.

Important: A class folder must be set up before adding students. If a class folder has not been created, the student will not be saved. Refer to the Creating Class Folders section for instructions on setting up a class. Creating a Class Folder

Subscription Limit Notice: If the student is not added after clicking, your account may have reached the maximum number of purchased user licenses. For example, if a school has 400 student licenses, adding a 401st student will not be possible. To resolve this:

Delete a student who has left the school to free up a license.

Purchase additional subscriptions to increase the number of users allowed. See More Info Here

Method 2: Adding a Student from the Administration Section

(Available to Teachers and School Administrators)

Go to Administration.

Click on Classes.

Ensure a class folder has been created.

Click Add a New Student in the top right-hand corner.

Enter the student’s first name and surname.

Select the class the student will be assigned to.

Once these details are entered, the student will be successfully added to their class.

Method 3: Adding a Student from the Users Section

(Available to School Administrators Only)

Click on Administration.

Select Users.

Click Create New User in the top right-hand corner.

Under User Information, enter the student’s first name, surname, and a valid email address.

Create a username for the student.

Under the Roles tab, select the appropriate role (Student, Teacher, or School Administrator).

Under the Classes tab, assign the student to the correct class.

This method is particularly useful for school administrators as it allows them to add teachers and other administrators in addition to students.

Final Reminder:

For adding more than a few students, use the bulk import file to ensure efficiency and reduce manual entry time.

For further assistance, refer to the additional guides in the administration manual.
