Do I need a school account?
You may benefit from having a school account in Cambridge One.
School accounts offer more comprehensive tools for managing students, classes and learning materials. They have one or more administrators nominated by the school. A school account is recommended to create and manage child accounts easily.
Independent teacher accounts are best if you are teaching students aged 16 and over, who can create and manage their own accounts using email.
Child accounts are for learners under 15. They have a user name instead of email to log in.
