How it’s turned on
Lena Agent is switched on for a whole school at a time, by Lena’s team. There’s no switch for it in Lena for Schools.- To turn it on, contact support@lena.africa or WhatsApp support and tell us which school. See contact support.
- Your lecturers can ask too. Until it’s on, they see “Lena Agent isn’t on for your school” in Lena for Teachers, with Request access. That sends us a request for your school.
- When it’s on, we email your school’s owner and lecturers once to say so. Lecturers can open it straight away.
Who uses it
- Lecturers use it in their own courses, as an Owner, Teacher or Assistant on the course. Each has a daily allowance.
- Students never see it.
- It only acts when a lecturer asks. A lecturer who’d rather not use it doesn’t have to, and can turn off the daily brief in their settings.
- Admins don’t use it in Lena for Schools.
What it can and can’t do
- It works as the lecturer. It can do only what that lecturer could do in the app, in the school they have open, and nothing more.
- It asks first, by default, before anything that can’t be taken back, notifies people, or changes someone else’s records, such as publishing or sending announcements. A lecturer can turn most of these checks off for themselves. Setting or changing marks, releasing grades or results, and ending a course always need the lecturer’s approval. See approvals and safety.
- It never touches billing, sign-in or passwords, or anything only school admins can do. It can’t turn itself on for a school.
