This article is intended for schools that import their classes and students from their MIS (see this article if your school uses CSV import).

Take care when removing classes and students. Once a class or student is removed, this is permanent. It isn't possible to restore the class/student, nor any data associated with them.

Removing classes

Only empty classes can be removed. First remove all students from the class.

  1. Go to 'Management' β†’ 'Class Manager'

  2. Click the pencil icon next to the class you want to remove

  3. Scroll to the bottom and choose 'Remove [class name] immediately'

  4. Confirm that you'd like to remove the class

Removing students

  • Before removing a student, they must first be moved to "No Class":

    1. Search for the student by name using the search box at the top of the screen

    2. Click on the 'Details' tab

    3. Select 'No class' from the Class dropdown

    4. Click 'Save'

  • Once the student is in No Class:

    1. Go to 'Management' β†’ 'Student Manager'

    2. Select the 'No Class' from the class selector at the top of the screen

    3. Tick the student(s) you want to remove

    4. Click 'Remove Student(s)'

    5. Confirm that you'd like to remove the student(s)


Frequently asked questions


What happens to a class/student's data once they've been removed?


Once a class or student is removed, their data cannot be restored. Make sure you want to permanently remove them before proceeding.

Can I remove multiple classes at once?

No. You'll need to remove each class individually.

Can I remove multiple students at once?


Yes.

  1. Go to 'Management' β†’ 'Student Manager'

  2. Choose 'No class' from the class selector at the top of the screen

  3. Tick the students that you want to remove

  4. Click 'Remove students'

  5. Confirm that you want to remove the selected students.

Can I re-add a student that I previously deleted?


Whilst you can re-add a previously deleted student in to Sparx Maths, this will create a new account for them. It won't reinstate any of their homework history nor XP, and they'll need to go through the new account setup process again.
