Deactivate a student account

The process of managing student accounts in Xello depends on if your site has nightly data transfers or is on a less frequent data transfer schedule.

Nightly data transfers

If your site does nightly data transfers then student accounts are managed through your school's Management Information System (MIS). Ensure the student is at the correct site in your MIS and changes will be reflected in Xello the next day.

Scheduled data transfers

If your site is on scheduled data transfers and you need to make changes to student accounts between transfers:

1. In the search bar located at the top of any page in your educator account, enter the student's name or ID.

2. Check the box beside each student name whose account you want to deactivate.
3. Once students are selected, from the top of the list, click Change account status and select Deactivate account.
   Tip: If you've made a mistake and need to undo a deactivation, for as long as you remain on the page after confirming, you have the option to click Undo on the green confirmation bar at the top of the page. This will undo every deactivation you just applied.
