Reactivate a student account

userXello AdminTime2 minutes

If a student’s account has been set to inactive, you can reactivate it from their student profile in Xello. Reactivating students means they’ll show up on reports and in student lists.

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.
