Roles in SchoolSpace decide what someone can and can’t do in a SchoolSpace world. Just like in real life — where students, teachers, and principals each have different responsibilities — in SchoolSpace, each role has a set of permissions. These roles are important for keeping the SchoolSpace safe, fun, and easy to use.   ### Important Things to Know about Roles Most SchoolSpace roles are world based. We call these world admins, or simply "admins." ![circleCheck](https://support.schoolspace.io/hubfs/circleCheck.svg)This makes it easy for you to customize what permissions teachers have between all your different worlds.  ![circleCheck](https://support.schoolspace.io/hubfs/circleCheck.svg)This also means teachers might see different buttons on the SchoolSpace menu depending on what world they're in and the world admin role they have in that world. Some permissions stay with teachers across different worlds or give teachers access to Dashboard tools. These are set up via user groups and the SchoolSpace team will manage this set up during your onboarding.   In most cases, teachers and school staff members will have the ability to [view message history](https://support.schoolspace.io/moderation-handbook?hsLang=en#message-history) and reports that involve the students they manage. For example, middle school teachers and faculty at your school may be able to view all messages or reports that pertain to a student in your middle school.   ### How do Users find Admins? To make it easy for your teachers and students to find admins inside a world, we recommend turning on the **admin identifier**. This will display a star ![adminIdentifier](https://support.schoolspace.io/hubfs/Latest%20UI%20Icons%20-%202025/adminIdentifier.svg) next to the person’s name above their avatar and in the Current Users tab. You can learn how to turn on the admin identifier in the [Moderation Handbook](https://support.schoolspace.io/moderation-handbook?hsLang=en#turn-on-admin-identifier).   ### What Can Admins Do? | |

### How Do I Add or Remove a World Admin? Generally, teachers and staff members at your school will automatically be granted the Moderator permission in your school worlds. This will be defined and configured during your SchoolSpace onboarding. Managers in a world can manually add admins by email or give admin permissions to others currently in the world with them. Admins that are manually granted can be removed or their role can be updated at any time, whether or not the admin is in the world with you. You must already be a Manager in the world to add or remove World Admins or change their role.   ##### To Add Admins by Email: 1. Enter the SchoolSpace world where you want to grant people admin permissions 2. Click **World Settings ![settings](https://support.schoolspace.io/hubfs/settings.svg)** on the left sidebar, then select **Admins** from the menu 3. In the *Add Admin by Email* section, enter the person’s **school issued email** in the **email address field** 4. Click the **Add Admin** button 5. Scroll down to the *Admins* section and find the person you’ve added as an Admin 6. Click the **appropriate check box** to assign them a role If you have trouble adding an admin by email, they may not have SSO access to your SchoolSpace worlds.
