By default, owners and admins can edit students. Managers can open a student’s page but can’t change it.
Don’t see this page or button? Your role doesn’t include it. Ask your center’s owner or an admin to give you the role you need.

Edit the student’s details

Open the student

In the sidebar, select Students, then select the student in the list.
2

At the top of the student’s page, select the ⋯ button, then select Edit.

Change what you need

Under Personal, you can change First name, Last name, Date of birth and Gender. Under Contact, you can change Phone, Email, Branch and Address.Changing the Branch doesn’t take the student out of the groups they’re already in.
4

Save

Select Save student.
If the email you entered already belongs to someone else, Cohort shows “This email is already used by another user.” Each person needs their own email address, or none. The same form is also where you connect another guardian and set a new password. See Manage guardians and Reset a student’s password.

​
Change the student’s status

Every student has a status: Active, Inactive, Graduated or Suspended. It appears next to the student’s name and in the Students list, so your team can see at a glance who is still studying with you. To change it, open the edit form as above. Under Status, choose the Student status, then select Save student. The status is a label for your team. Here’s what it changes, and what it doesn’t:
Marking a student Inactive, Graduated or Suspended doesn’t remove them from their groups. To take a student out of a group, open the group and drop or suspend their enrollment on its Students tab.
