Practice first if you like. In the app, this walkthrough can run in practice mode with a sample school, so nothing is saved to a real account. If you’re not signed in, practice mode is the only mode.

Step by step

Where: School setup.

  1. Teachers

    Open the Teachers step.

  2. Work email

    Type the teacher’s work email.

  3. Display name

    Add the name colleagues and linked parents will see, like “Ms Patel”.

  4. Role

    Teachers manage their own classes. School admins can also change the school’s setup.

  5. Their classes

    Tick the classes they’ll teach. You can change this later.

  6. Save the invitation

    Tap “Save invitation”.

  7. Pending invitations

    They join by signing in to Ponder with that email. The invitation is picked up automatically. You can revoke it any time.

  8. Share the app link

    Until email sending is switched on, copy the app link and send it to them yourself.
