Before the start of a new school year (± 1 August), the Earz database containing student results is cleaned up. The administrator can set what happens:
(1)
• ‘Resetting scores’ on (= default): the game results (except the highscore) are reset to 0.
(The teacher can -by setting another ‘from’ date- still see the scores from the previous school year.)
• Resetting scores off:
scores from the previous school years remain intact; players continue where they left off before the summer break.
(2)
• ‘Resetting classes’ on (=default):
students have to choose a (new) class at the beginning of the new school year when logging in.
• ‘Resetting classes’ off:
students remain linked to the class from before the summer holidays.

Rating:
• Unticked (=default): Earz automatically gives the grades 1 to 10 (= 0 – 100% score).
• Ticked: The organization can determine its own rating (e.g. “A++” , 1 to 6, “Excellent!” etc.).

Set access per teacher?
• No (= default): all teachers have access to all classes, games and folders on the teachers’ page.
• Yes: the administrator can set per teacher which classes (+ students), folders and games the teacher has access to.

Make Inbox available?
• Yes (=standard): teachers can send messages to their students within Earz.
• No: the messaging function is disabled.
