You can add students to your school account by clicking to 'Manage members' from your school dashboard.
On the School members page, you'll see a list of all the members within that school, including the current owner, teachers and students.
Click 'Add student' and choose from the option to add a single student or to add multiple students at once.
Adding a single student
Complete the form details to add a new student. You will need to provide:
- the student's name (which will help you to identify them in the system)
- a unique username (which the student will use to log in)
- a temporary password (which the student will reset when they next log in)
Adding multiple students
- You will need to upload a csv file containing student names, usernames and passwords (with a maximum of 50 rows per file).
- A template which uses the required formatting is available for download.
- You will see notification messages on the 'School members' page to let you know when your upload is processing and when it is complete.
If you have feedback on Code Editor for Education, please let us know through this form.

Why am I getting errors when trying to update or add a student?
There are a few reasons you might see an error when trying to update or add a new student to your school.
Usernames:
- Check the username you're giving to a student is not already in use in the school account.
- Check the username is not the same as the password.
Passwords:
- Check that the temporary password you're giving to a student is at least 8 characters long.
- Check you have not used a potentially insecure temporary password, such as 12345678, password123. Password that are too simple or easy to guess are not allowed. Use our password help to choose a more secure password.
