This article is for teachers.
Designated users, who may include education leaders and support staff, may need to temporarily visit a class to support teachers and students. For example, they may need to assign a substitute teacher or review a student’s classwork page to support a guardian conversation. Workspace admins control who can visit a class in the Admin Console. People who can visit a class include, but are not limited to:
- Principals
- Department heads
- School counselors
- Curriculum leaders
- Administrative assistants
- Coaches and mentors
- IT admins
Learn what education leaders & staff can do when they visit your class
During an education leaders and support staff's visit to your class, they can:
- Perform all the tasks that a co-teacher can perform. Learn more about what co-teachers can do.
- View the same information as a co-teacher, such as teachers’ and students’ names, photos, and email addresses. Learn who can see your personal information in Classroom.
As the primary teacher, when education leaders or support staff visit your class, you receive an email notification.
