• There are two types of teacher roles in the Assessments Portal: Teacher and Unrestricted Teacher. We recommend that any staff who are going to be supervising the test on test day be assigned the Unrestricted Teacher role and not the Teacher role, so as to have access to all students who will be sitting the ICAS tests. This is especially useful for secondary school staff who are supervising students from different home-room classes. If you wish to allocate the Teacher role to your staff, you will need to ensure that you include class information in your student import and that you assign class(es) to teachers. Students can only be allocated to one class in the Assessments Portal. The class field is not mandatory for ICAS when uploading student details into the Assessments Portal.
• If there are staff in the school with the Teacher role, you must assign them a class. To do this, click “Assign classes to teachers” from the School Coordinator dashboard. The Teacher’s account must have been activated prior to assigning classes to teachers.
• Note: As the School Coordinator and Unrestricted Teacher roles have access to all students in the Assessments Portal for your school, you do not need to assign them any classes.

If you have already uploaded your student data without classes, you will need to reupload the spreadsheet with the class field populated. You can only add a class to existing individual student records if the class already exists in the Assessments Portal.
