    How to leave your current school licence and what happens to your data.

    When to Leave

    You might leave a school when:

    • Transferring to a different school
    • Retiring or changing careers
    • Your school's licence ended
    • Switching to an individual account

    How to Leave

    Step 1: Access Settings

    Click your profile icon, then "Account Settings".

    Step 2: Find School Section

    Scroll to the "School Membership" section.

    Step 3: Leave School

    Click "Leave School" and confirm your decision.

    What Happens to Your Data

    Your Classes

    Before leaving, you have options:

    • Keep classes – They become personal (not linked to school)
    • Transfer to admin – School admin can reassign them

    Your Students

    • Stay with their class
    • If class transfers to admin, students go too

    Your Reports

    • Reports you created remain accessible to you
    • School no longer has visibility

    Your Settings

    • Personal settings preserved
    • School-specific settings removed

    For School Records

    Schools should have teachers transfer classes before leaving to maintain:

    • Student records
    • Report history
    • Compliance documentation

    After Leaving

    Your Account

    • Reverts to individual (free tier or your personal licence)
    • Can join a different school
    • Can purchase Teacher Pro

    The School

    • No longer sees you in member list
    • Your usage no longer counts toward their quota
    • Classes you transferred remain available

    Rejoining

    If you need to rejoin the same school:

    1. Request a new invitation from the admin
    2. Accept the invitation
    3. Your account re-links to the school

    Leaving vs. Deleting

    | Action | Your Data | School's Data |

    |--------|-----------|---------------|

    | Leave School | Kept | Transferred |

    | Delete Account | Removed | Removed |

    If you're also done with ReportRocket entirely, delete your account after leaving.
