Add a teacher profile
A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 9 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to add a teacher profile
- 1Click Teachers under People in the sidebar
- 2Click Add teacher
- 3Optionally choose a square Photo — it previews in the circle and is shown to parents
- 4Enter First name and Last name (the only required fields), then Title and Subjects (comma-separated)
- 5Enter Email and Phone — the email is where the sign-in invite goes; with no email the roster shows No login
- 6Optionally set Max classes / day (advisory — the scheduler warns past it) and, on multi-campus schools, Home campus
- 7Optionally write a Bio — it is shown to families on the class page
- 8Click Add teacher — the new row reads Not invited; adding a teacher never sends an invite
- 9Open the teacher to see the workload tiles (Classes, Students, Periods / week, Daily load); use Edit to change details, or More then Deactivate (Reactivate brings them back) when staffing changes
Part of School setup & the year cycle
Configure the school once — branding, years and terms, classes, staff, roles — then let the June rollover wizard carry it all into the new year.
