Blocking someone will hide them from the class list and prevent their future attempts to join the class. As a teacher, this is how you remove students from specific classes.
🚨 "You do not have permission to access this class" is the error message that any blocked student or teacher will get if they try to join a class they’re blocked from. Once unblocked, they’ll automatically join the class again.
How to Block a Student/Teacher
Navigate to your class list (tap the Classes tab in Showbie).
Tap on the class you’d like to block the student from.
Tap the Settings Menu (circled ellipsis).
Tap Class Members.
Find the student/teacher you would like to block and tap their name.
Tap Block Student/Teacher.
Blocking someone from the class hides them from the class list. They also won’t be able to access the class until they’re unblocked from the class.
