Before you create a class in the platform, it helps to decide three things up front: which curriculum pathway you're teaching, roughly how many students will be on the roster, and which weeks you expect to deliver it over. This lesson walks through that planning step and previews the Setting Up a Class article you'll use next.

Key points
- Confirm your school has been granted access to the curriculum pathway you intend to teach — check with your School Administrator if you're not sure.
- A class name that includes the grade and section (e.g. "Grade 6 — Robotics, Section B") is easier for students and parents to recognize than a generic name.
- You don't need every student finalized before creating the class — you can add students to the roster incrementally.
