How to add students to a class

You can type names in one at a time, or copy and paste your whole class list in one go, for example from a register, a spreadsheet or an email. MarkMate works out first names and surnames for you.

Steps

1. Open your class and click the Students tab.

2. Click Add students. (If the class is new and empty, the box is already open.)

3. In the box, type or paste your students' names, one name per line. Either of these works:

Ava Johnson

Johnson, Ava

4. Check the button at the bottom. It shows how many students will be added, for example Add 28 students.

5. Click that button.

Good to know

• Every student needs a first name and a surname. If one is missing, MarkMate shows a red message telling you which line to fix. Initials are fine.

• Students with two first names are fine. Mary Anne Smith becomes first name Mary Anne, surname Smith.

• To copy from Excel or Google Sheets, select a single column of full names and paste it in.

• You can add more students later by clicking Add students again.
