How to add users from another school to a group

Top  Previous  Next

You can create groups that can be used across schools.

You will need to create a group or edit an existing group.

You will then need to add a member of staff from another school. Once they have been added, they can add pupils from their school into the group.

To set this up:

Select 'Groups' from the left-hand menu.

Select the group you wish to add users from another school to. Click on the orange 'Edit' button.

In the Edit Group page, click on the blue ‘Email Invite’ button. This will open the Email Invites page. This will allow you to invite new users or manage existing invitations.

As you have added a user from another school, an invitation email will be sent to that user and they will need to confirm they wish to join the group before they join. They will also receive a notification in Purple Mash. Once they have accepted the invitation, they will be able to add pupils from their school into the group.
