Roles in SchoolPivotstr

There are primarily 2 types of roles - School Owner and School Administrator, who own and manage the account respectively.

If you’re Owner of a School, you will see the text ‘Owner’ listed next to the School name in the MY SCHOOLS drop down menu.

Also, the name of the School Owner is displayed in the School Detail panel on the left side of the School Dashboard.

School Ownerstr

A School Owner is someone who owns the School Account and has privileges to:

  • Edit School details,

  • Create/edit/delete School Schedule(s),

  • Add or remove Administrators,

  • Transfer ownership privileges,

  • Purchase or update a subscription, and,

  • Delete a School account.

If you create a School profile, then by default you are the Owner of that School unless you explicitly transfer the account to someone else.

School Administratorstr

A School Administrator is someone who manages a School account and has privileges to:

  • Edit School details, and,

  • Create/edit/delete School Schedule(s),

A School Administrator CANNOT perform any of the operations listed below:

  • Add or remove Administrators,

  • Transfer ownership privileges,

  • Purchase or update a subscription, and,

  • Delete a School account.

Only an Owner of the account can invite someone to be the Adminitrator to an account. When a School owner adds someone as an Administrator, they receive an email to log into the SchoolPivot web site. Once the individual logs into the system, they are able to view the School information and manage it.

Transfering Ownershipstr

A School Owner can transfer ownership to any other existing Admininstrator and make them Owner of the account.

Note

An individual cannot be directly added an as Owner without being part of the SchoolPivot system. One has to be an Administrator first before an owner can assign them ownership of the account.
