Enroll Your Students: Edit Your Period Enrollment Keys


Sleedu for Middle & High School Teachers — Start Here

Your course already has a separate group for every class period — Period 0 through Period 7 — plus Accommodation and Support Teacher groups. You don’t add students one by one. Instead, each period has its own enrollment key (a simple password), and when a student enters the key for their period, Sleedu drops them into the right group automatically.

Your job is just to set or check the key for each period, then hand each class their key.

Step 1 — Open Enrolment methods

  1. Open your course.
  2. Click the Participants tab. [SCREENSHOT: course tabs, Participants]
  3. On the Participants page, click the dropdown at the top left that says Enrolled users.
  4. Under the Enrolments heading, choose Enrolment methods. [SCREENSHOT: dropdown showing Enrolment methods]

You’ll see a list of enrolment methods — one Self enrolment entry per period.

Step 2 — Edit the key for a period

  1. Find the Self enrolment method for the period you want (for example, Self enrolment (Period 3)).
  2. Click the gear / settings icon next to it to edit.
  3. Find the Enrolment key field.
  4. Type the key (password) you want that class to use. Keep it simple but not guessable — e.g. chem-p3-2026.
  5. Make sure the method is enabled (not greyed out).
  6. Click Save changes.

Repeat for each period you teach.

Step 3 — Give each class their key

Hand each class only their period’s key:

  • Write it on the board on day one
  • Put it in your syllabus
  • Post it in your school’s messaging system

Tell students to: log in to Sleedu → find your course → enter the key when prompted. That’s all they do.

Step 4 — Confirm students landed in the right period

  1. Go back to Participants.
  2. Open the same dropdown and choose Groups (under the Groups heading). [SCREENSHOT: Groups view]
  3. Watch the counts climb as students enroll — Period 3 (0) becomes Period 3 (28).

If a student used the wrong key and landed in the wrong period, you can move them here: click the correct period, click Add/remove users, and move them over.


That’s it — your students are enrolled. Next: activating your gradebook for your first unit.
