How do I create an account?
This article explains how to create a SpacesEDU account for teachers, students, and family members.
Before You Start
- If your school uses Single Sign-On (SSO), you will be guided to your school's login page automatically after entering your email. No separate sign-up form is needed.
- If your school uses SpacesEDU Pro with rostering, your account and classes may already be set up. Try logging in before creating a new account.
- Students with a QR code from their teacher do not need to sign up at all. Click Log in With QR Code on the sign-up page and scan your code.
Step 1: Visit the Sign-Up Page
Go to the sign-up page for your region:
- π¨π¦ Canada / International: SpacesEDU
- πΊπΈ United States: https://app.spacesedu.com/signup
Confirm your region is correct in the top right corner of the screen.

Step 2: Enter Your Email
Enter your email address. What happens next depends on whether your school uses SSO.
If your school uses SSO:
- You will be redirected to your school's login portal
- Log in with your school username and password (the same credentials you use for your school computer or email)
- If prompted, confirm your role (Student or Teacher) and select your school
- Your account will be created automatically
If your school does not use SSO:
Continue to Step 3 below.
Step 3: Select Your Role
After entering your email, select your account type:
Role | What to do next |
|---|---|
I'm a Student | Enter a Class Code provided by your teacher (or use a class URL if provided) |
I'm a Teacher | Continue to the teacher sign-up form |
I'm Family | Continue to the family sign-up form |

Step 4: Complete Sign-Up
Choose one of two sign-up methods:
Option A: Sign up with Google
- Click Sign Up with Google
- Agree to the Terms of Use
- Select your Google account (or click Use Another Account to choose a different one)
Option B: Sign up with email and password
- Enter your first and last name
- Create a password
- Check the box to agree to the Terms of Use
- Click Sign Up
Additional Steps by Role
Teachers:
After completing sign-up, you will be prompted to confirm your school:
- Browse the list of nearby schools (based on your location) or search by name
- Click Join School
If your school doesn't appear, double-check the spelling and try again. If you still can't find it, click Can't find your school? at the bottom of the screen.
Family members:
After creating your account, you need an invitation from a teacher to connect with a student. You can:
- Sign up using the link in the email invitation from your student's teacher
- Or create your account first, then accept an invitation by clicking your initials or avatar in the top right corner
Good to Know
- Students with a QR code can skip sign-up entirely. Just scan the code.
- Teachers with SSO accounts may also need administrator approval if their school uses SpacesEDU Pro.
- If classes have been imported for your school, you may see classes pre-populated when you first log in.
- After creating a teacher account, your next step is to create a class. See How do I create a class?
