With School portal admin access, users can:
- View all school insights and data, including student reflections
- Create, edit, and share modules with all users
- Unlock option to add themselves as a co-teacher to any classroom at your school
For this reason, the ability to manage permissions is only accessible to individuals with primary admin access.
(Note: Besides teachers, only individuals with admin or primary admin permissions will have the ability to receive urgent alerts. If these admin permissions are revoked, notification alerts will automatically be disabled for those users.)
1. Login to your Sown To Grow admin account.
Sign in with Google or Clever for the most seamless experience.
2. Select the Classrooms & users icon from the home page or select Manage in the upper right hand corner and select Classroom & users from the dropdown navigation bar.
3. On your Teachers & staff page you can modify a users permissions by selecting either admin or primary admin from the permissions drop down box. All accounts automatically default to permission level of teacher when an account is created. From here, you can also enable whether or not the user will receive alerts as well as select their role.
Please note, if a user does not have the receives urgent alerts feature enabled, they will not have access to the Alerts within the school portal.
4. You are all set! You can now filter by all users or view only users with admin permissions enabled.
Note: When a user’s role is updated (such as being upgraded from a teacher to a school admin), the system will log the user out. The next time the user signs in, they will see their updated permissions and account access. This ensures that all role and permission changes take effect immediately and securely.
