Course Planner permissions
Course Planner in Xello lets educators help their students plan and manage their course load in middle and high school. Your user level permissions will determine the tasks you can complete in Course Planner.
District Administrators have full access and control. They can create and edit courses and course rules, and manage diplomas or specializations. They can also view and work with student course plans. They can also add and manage all schools' settings like deadlines and grades if this has been configured for the district level.
School Administrators can enable the course availability, and customize their own school's Course Descriptions and Course Notes. They can also view and work with student course plans.
- If the district has enabled the school-level Settings control, School Administrators can also add and manage their own school's settings, like deadlines and grades. Reach out to your Onboarding Manager to review the Settings controls.
- Once the course description and course note have been modified for the school, any changes made at the district level will NOT be reflected for the school.
