Before you begin

  • A teacher who can start Microsoft Teams sign-in with a school account
  • A Microsoft Entra administrator authorized to approve applications for your school

Onboarding path

1

Teacher starts setup

A teacher begins Microsoft Teams teacher setup. If Microsoft asks for administrator approval, the teacher requests approval or shares the administrator setup guide with their administrator.
2

Administrator approves

The administrator approves for the school during sign-in, from a teacher’s request by email or in Microsoft Entra, or with the direct approval link. Choose one method; administrators can also approve before a teacher starts.
3

Teacher finishes

After approval, the teacher signs in again and verifies classes on the same teacher setup page.

You are ready when

  • Microsoft administrator consent is complete.
  • A teacher synchronization imports the expected classes and rosters.
  • Students can sign in with rostered school Microsoft accounts.
