Inviting Teachers to use GroupEd

Created by Lindsay Hodges, Modified on Fri, 3 Jul at 1:19 PM by Louis Cooksley

Staff records are automatically imported into GroupEd from your school's MIS (Management Information System) via Wonde. To give teachers access to the app, you send them an invitation email from within GroupEd. This guide explains how.

Before You Start

Make sure the teacher's record exists in GroupEd before sending an invitation. Staff records are synced from your MIS — if a member of staff is not appearing in GroupEd, check that they have been added to your MIS first.

You can check your current staff list by navigating to Students & Staff and clicking the Staff tab.

Sending an Invitation

Navigate to Insight → Students & Staff from the left-hand navigation menu.

Click the + Invite people button in the top-right corner of the page.

On the invitation screen, click the Staff tab on the right-hand panel.

Find and select the members of staff you wish to invite. You can search by name or scroll through the list. Tick the checkbox next to each person.

The pre-written invitation message is displayed on the left. You can edit the message title and body text before sending.

Once you are happy with your selection and message, click Send. Each selected staff member will receive an invitation email with a link to register their GroupEd account.

What Happens Next

The invited staff member will receive an email containing a registration link. When they click the link, they will be guided through setting up their GroupEdpassword.

Once registered, their status on the Staff tab will update to REGISTERED. Staff who have not yet completed registration will show as UNREGISTERED

Re-sending an Invitation

If a staff member did not receive their invitation or needs it resending, follow the same steps above to send a new invitation to that person.

Inviting Multiple Staff at Once

You can invite multiple staff members in a single send by ticking several names before clicking Send. You can also tick the All checkbox at the top of the staff list to select everyone at once.
