Why Removing Teachers or Students Differs from Record Deletion

Administrators often search the recycle bin for removed students, not realizing that membership changes are managed directly on rosters.

Confusion between member removal and content deletion

When an administrator removes a graduated student, expecting them to appear in the trash bin creates confusion about account ownership.

Manage people and content through distinct operational channels

  1. Content and structural records (batches, tests, timetables) move to the recycle bin.

  2. People (teachers and students) own independent, multi-workspace accounts.

  3. Removing a person revokes their institutional access without deleting their account.

  4. Re-admit removed teachers or students anytime by re-inviting their verified email.

Put it into practice

Example: Re-admitting a returning faculty member

A former teacher returns from sabbatical; the admin re-invites her email in Teacher Management, restoring her institutional access in seconds.

Worth checking first

  • Preserves personal student and teacher account sovereignty.
  • Institutional batches and tests remain safely recoverable in the recycle bin.
