How do I delete old students?

Teacher dashboards show all students at your school with Grok Academy accounts. This will potentially include students who are not in your direct class, as well as students who may have left your school entirely.

Options for managing inactive student accounts:

Students who have left the school

Students who have graduated

Options for filtering students in the teacher dashboard


Students who have left the school

If a student has left the school, you can disassociate their Grok account from your school by:

  1. Clicking on the name of the student on your dashboard to pull up their individual page;
  2. Click on Edit Details;
  3. Click on Institutions;
  4. Click on "They have left this institution"

Students who have graduated

At the end of the school year, any students who have finished the final year of schooling (grade 12 or 13, depending on the country) will be automatically 'graduated' and removed from your institution and teacher dashboard. If a student has been graduated in error, please let us know.

Students who have graduated primary / elementary school will not be automatically removed. If you have students who have graduated from your school and you would like to have them removed in bulk, please:

  1. Create a group containing all students to be removed
  2. Request to have students in the group removed by contacting support: support@groklearning.com

Options for filtering students in the teacher dashboard

Unless a student has left your school, we strongly recommend not removing them from your dashboard. Once a student has been removed, no other teacher at your school will be able to assign work to or access their student data. Furthermore, inactive student accounts will not affect how many students can use your whole school paid access.

Instead, you can create class groups, as this allows you to easily filter only the students relevant to you. A student can belong to multiple groups, so you are be able to have the same student in, for example, for "2020 code club" and one for "2021 code club" etc without causing problems. To create a group, select student(s) from your dashboard and click on Add to Group:
