Pass Requests Guide for Teachers

This article will describe how to manage pass requests for teachers.

Updated over 6 months ago

As a teacher, you might get Pass Requests from students. If a room shows a lock icon to students, they can't start a pass there without approval. By managing your Pass Requests you can ensure passes are approved when needed.

What are the different Pass Requests?

There are 2 types of Pass Requests: Now and Scheduled. You have the ability to toggle between these on your teacher home page.

  • Pass Requests for now, require action to approve to start a pass immediately

  • Scheduled Pass requests require action for a pass some time in the future.


Approving A Pass from Your Device

Your Pass Requests are on the right side of your Teacher Homepage.

The red indicator will show you how many "now" and "scheduled" passes you have

  1. Hover over the icon to see any messages

  2. If needed click the pass to see the pass in more detail

  3. Approve or deny the pass.

If you approve, the pass goes into either the Active Passes or Scheduled Passes section, depending on the type.

If you deny a Pass Request, the student gets a message about it. You can even add a message to explain why.


Pass Requests Sent to Students

Teachers send Pass Requests to Students when they are creating Future Passes that are Declineable. Learn more about Declineability and making Scheduled Passes here.

Students simply need to click accept on the pass from their device to accept the request you have sent.


Missed Pass Requests

If you have missed a Pass Request, meaning the scheduled time for the pass has passed, you can still see and delete this.

Note, in addition to saying "Missed" a missed Request will display the text for the time with a strike through it.
