Peabody with ClassLink
Peabody's ClassLink roster import is built and read-only, and not switched on yet. Until then, use the spreadsheet import or the class code.
Where it stands
Built, not switched on yet.
If your school uses ClassLink, here is where things stand. The roster import for it is built and read-only, but it waits until Peabody's connection is finished and switched on. There is no button yet, and we are not promising a date. Until then, use the spreadsheet import or the class code. Children do not sign in to Peabody through ClassLink; this is only about bringing a class list over.
What to do now
- Use the spreadsheet import or the class code today.
- Ask your school's IT person whether ClassLink holds your class lists.
- Check back here: this page changes when the connection is switched on.
What Peabody takes
Peabody takes each child's first name and grade, reads them once, keeps them for 30 minutes as a draft for the teacher to check, and then makes the children as a first name plus four numbers. It never takes a last name, an email, a student number or the service's own id (the Clever tile, once switched on, is the one addition: see the Clever page). Read-only access only: Peabody cannot change anything at a school.
Questions
Is there a ClassLink button on Peabody now?
No. The import is built and waiting to be switched on, so there is no button yet.
What does it read?
Each child's first name and grade, read-only. See the privacy section above.
