- Confirm that you have chosen the correct student/s
- Click on ‘Yes, permanently delete’
- The student/s and all their records will be removed from Spellzone - if you accidentally delete a student, please contact us within 30 days as we may be able to restore their account
To delete a single student from your school’s account:
- Log into Spellzone
- Click on the blue ‘Students’ tab or the blue 'Classes' tab
- Find the student you would like to delete
- Tick the box at the end of the row (there is a ‘Select all’ option at top of the student roll if you would like to delete all students)

- Click on ‘Delete’
- Confirm that you have chosen the correct student/s
- Click on ‘Yes, permanently delete’
- The student and all their records will be removed from Spellzone - if you accidentally delete a student, please contact us within 30 days as we may be able to restore their account
Once you have removed any students who are no longer using Spellzone, their slots will become available for any new students you may wish to add.
Classes
It’s time to move everyone up a school year. This can be done quickly if your classes have a numerical reference in their name or have been assigned a year. To do this:
- Log into Spellzone
- Click on the blue ‘Classes’ tab
- In the ‘Move classes up’ box, click on ‘Move Year’
- Check the classes have been moved up as you expected and then click on ‘Keep Changes’
If there are any classes you no longer need:
- Log into Spellzone
- Click on the blue ‘Classes’ tab
- Find the class you would like to delete
- Click on the bin icon at the end of the row
- Confirm you have chosen the correct class and click on 'Delete Class'
Students in a deleted class will remain on the student roll. Learn how to create new classes and how to sort new or existing students into classes.
Staff
At the start of the year, you may wish to add new members of staff to your Spellzone account and remove any teachers who have left the school.
To delete a member of staff from your school’s account:
- Log into Spellzone
- Click on the blue ‘Staff' tab
- Find the member/s of staff you would like to delete
- Tick the box at the end of the row/s (there is a ‘Select all’ option at top of the staff roll if you would like to delete all members of staff)
- Scroll to the bottom of the staff roll
- Click on ‘Delete’
- Confirm that you have chosen the correct member/s of staff
- Click on ‘Yes, permanently delete’
- The member/s of staff and all their records will be removed from Spellzone - if you accidentally delete a member of staff, please contact us within 30 days as we may be able to restore their account
You can also convert any member of staff’s account into an administrator account by selecting them from the staff roll and clicking on the ‘Convert to Administrator’ button
Don’t forget the start of the year is the perfect time to reset the Spelling Ability Test.
