What this guide covers
- how to create a new class
- how to add or assign students to a class
- how to view and manage classes
- how class ownership and linked-student access work
This guide shows you how to create and manage classes in Superadjust. A clear class structure matters because classes shape student organisation, roster views, and how teachers work across groups in day-to-day evidence workflows.
Context: Classes are tied to the teacher who owns them, but Superadjust also supports linked students. That means a teacher can sometimes see classes that include students linked to them, even when they do not own the class record itself.
Step 1: Open the Classes area
The Classes area shows all your class groups at a glance. Each class card displays the year level, student count, teacher assignments, and a readiness progress bar showing the status breakdown of students in that class.

The Classes overview showing class cards with readiness progress and the New Class button
- 1.Navigate to the Classes tab in the main navigation.
- 2.Review your existing classes — each card shows the class name, year level, student count, and readiness breakdown.
- 3.Click '+ New Class' in the bottom right to create a new class.
Step 2: Create a new class
When a class is created, the backend stores it against the owning teacher. A coordinator in the same school can also create or edit classes for that teacher where the permission rules allow it.
The New Class modal where you enter the class name and year level
- 1.Click '+ New Class' to open the New Class modal.
- 2.Enter the class name (e.g. '4A', 'Year 5 Literacy').
- 3.Select the year level from the dropdown.
- 4.Click 'Create Class' to save and move to the next step.
Step 3: Add students to the class
After creating the class, you can add students from your available roster. The system shows all students in the selected year level, and you can search or select all at once.
Search and select students to add to your class
- 1.Use the search field to find specific students by name.
- 2.Click on student avatars to select them individually.
- 3.Use 'Select all X students in Year Y' to add the entire year level at once.
- 4.Review your selections and save the class roster.
If a student is not appearing in your roster, check whether they are linked to you or owned by you. Only eligible students can be added to your class.
Step 4: View and manage the class
Once the class is created, clicking on it opens the class detail view. Here you can see all students with their readiness status, log evidence for the whole class, or work with individual students.
The class detail view showing students with readiness status and bulk logging options
- 1.Click on a class card to open the class detail view.
- 2.View students grouped by readiness status: Emerging, Developing, Strong, Audit-Ready.
- 3.Use 'Edit class' to update the class name or settings.
- 4.Click 'Log for whole class' to add evidence for all students at once.
- 5.Select individual students and use 'Log for selected' for targeted evidence logging.
Understanding class cards
Each class card in the overview provides a quick summary of the class status. Understanding these elements helps you prioritise which classes need attention.
The four stages of class management in Superadjust
Class ownership and access
| Concept | What it means |
|---|---|
| Class owner | The teacher who created the class and whose record it is stored against. |
| Linked students | Students who are linked to a teacher but owned by someone else. These students can appear in the teacher's roster. |
| Class visibility | A teacher may see a class if it contains students linked to them, even if they do not own the class itself. |
| Coordinator access | Coordinators in the same school can create or edit classes for teachers where permission rules allow. |
Why this matters
Classes do more than group students on screen. They affect roster organisation, class-specific access, and how linked teachers work with shared students. Keeping classes tidy makes student views easier to trust and keeps group-based work more accurate.
Common mistake
Assuming every class behaves like a simple owner-only record. In Superadjust, linked-student access can affect what a teacher sees, so class visibility and class ownership are not always the same thing.
What to do next
Once the class is set up, the next step is usually to add students or start logging evidence against the right student group. If you are working across linked students, review the roster first so the class view matches the students you expect to see.
