Transfer Class Ownership

As a host teacher, learn how to invite an existing co-teacher to take ownership of your class, and as a co-teacher, learn how to accept an ownership invitation.

Updated this week

This feature is only supported on the web at this time.


Teachers may need to transfer ownership of their class due to various circumstances such as taking family leave or changing schools. This feature gives teachers confidence that their class has been successfully transferred to another teacher, and that the new class owner has all class editing capabilities.

Host Teacher: Initiate the transfer

Step 1: Select the class you want to transfer.

Step 2: Click the three dots in the corner, and then select 'Transfer ownership.' If you do not see this button, make sure you have added the co-teacher first.

Step 3: Select the new class owner. Then, click 'Save' to send the invitation.

If the co-teacher does not accept, then the original teacher remains the owner. The original teacher can also cancel a pending invitation to transfer ownership.


Co-Teacher: Finalize the transfer request

Step 1: Select the class where you have the pending ownership request. This is indicated by a red dot.

Step 2: Identify the green banner, and either 'Accept' or 'Decline' the class ownership request.

Step 3: If accepted, you will now have all class owner capabilities, including adding co-teachers and editing student information.
