Before you begin
Here's what you'll need:
- An authorised teacher account at a participating school
- An active school licence for family joining
Let's get started
Follow these steps
These instructions match the current StoryNest app. The pictures are simple screen maps until verified product screenshots are available.
Open the teacher area
Sign in to your school-enabled account and open Teach or My classes.
Create a class
Choose the class creation button. Enter the class name, year level when relevant, and choose your school.
Open the new class
After saving, StoryNest opens the new class workspace. This is where you manage students, tasks and their recorded work.
Find the joining code
Locate the class code and instructions to share with families. Do not post student access cards publicly.
Invite families
Share the code through your school's approved communications. Families can join a class with their own accounts, and school-login students may be added separately.
A few handy tips
- A school licence is required for the family joining flow.
- Follow your school's consent and student privacy processes before assigning work.
- Share student-specific access cards only with the intended family.
Good to know
Common questions
Can students use it without a family account?
A teacher can add students for the school-login pathway, subject to school access and consent.
Where do I see submitted work?
Open the class workspace and its practice or work feed.
