# Student & Educator Experience

> What students and educators experience after being added to Manage School and receiving a licence.

This guide explains what happens from a student or educator's perspective. Understanding the user experience helps administrators answer questions and set expectations during rollout.

***

## Student experience

After a student is added to Manage School and granted a licence:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an account or sign in">
    New students sign up at [exam-insights.com](https://exam-insights.com) using their school email. Existing students sign in with their current account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose subjects">
    During setup (or in Account Settings), the student selects the QCAA subjects they are studying.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start using the platform">
    With a granted licence, the student has full access to upgraded features for their chosen subjects.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Students can update their subjects at any time in Account Settings.

## Educator experience

Educators follow the same process as students:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an account or sign in">
    New educators sign up at [exam-insights.com](https://exam-insights.com) using their school email. Existing educators sign in with their current account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose teaching subjects">
    During setup, the educator selects the subjects they teach.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start using the platform">
    With a granted licence, the educator has full access to upgraded features for their teaching subjects.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Educators can update their subjects at any time in Account Settings.

***

## Choosing subjects

Students and educators **choose their own subjects**. Administrators never need to:

* Create classes
* Assign classes
* Allocate subjects to users

Each user selects the subjects relevant to them during account setup. They can add or remove subjects later in Account Settings at any time.

<Tip>
  If a student changes subjects mid-year, they can update their selection in Account Settings without administrator involvement.
</Tip>

## Role differences

Students, educators, and administrators have access to different features:

| Feature       | Student | Educator | Administrator |
| ------------- | ------- | -------- | ------------- |
| Questions     | ✓       | ✓        | ✓             |
| Insights      | ✓       | ✓        | ✓             |
| Performance   | ✓       | —        | —             |
| Manage School | —       | —        | ✓             |

**Questions** — browse and filter past QCAA external exam questions

**Insights** — analytics and data visualisations for syllabus coverage and question trends

**Performance** — personal progress tracking (students only)

**Manage School** — administrator portal for user and licence management (administrators only)

## What administrators do not need to do

Manage School is designed so administrators focus on access, not classroom setup:

* You do **not** need to assign students to classes
* You do **not** need to allocate subjects to users
* You do **not** need to create teacher–student relationships in the platform

Users handle their own subject selection. Your role is to add users and grant licences when ready.

***

## Sharing sign-in instructions

When you are ready to roll out access, share these steps with students and educators:

1. Go to [exam-insights.com](https://exam-insights.com)
2. Sign in with your school email (Microsoft, Google, or email and password)
3. Select your subjects during setup
4. Start exploring Exam Insights

For a broader introduction to the platform, point users to the [Quick Start Guide](/getting_started/quick_start_guide).
