For school administrators

READSmart school admin guide

A school administrator runs the school side of READSmart: approving teachers, setting up classes and keeping an eye on usage. For day-to-day class work, such as reviewing a recording or opening a reading check, see the teacher guide, since administrators can open every page it covers too.
