Classes are the main way to organise child profiles on Educa—often by room, age group, or teaching team. They help structure your site and can also be used to manage privacy, limiting what teachers can see. Additionally, you can set up Groups as another way to organise profiles. Note that only Site Admins can create and manage Classes or Groups.
Key Differences: Classes vs Groups
Class: Each child can belong to only one Class. Used as their primary grouping.
Group: Children can belong to multiple Groups. Helpful for shared interests, transitions, attendance days, etc.
