Profile children are used when class privacy is turned on and you need a teacher to access children outside of their assigned class. You can assign these profile connections individually or in bulk.

When Do You Need to Assign Profile Children?

If class privacy is turned on:

  • Teachers only see children in their assigned class.

  • To give access to children outside that class, assign them as profile children.

  • This allows the teacher to create stories, view profiles, and engage with those children.

If class privacy is turned off:

  • All teachers can see all child profiles.

  • You may still assign profile children so that teachers can filter their view under My Children.
