# Students: Admin vs Teacher

> What each role can see and do on the Students page.

This page explains how **Students** behaves for **owners**, **admins**, and **teachers**. For how roles are assigned and who can open **Staff**. See [Staff roles and permissions](/hflow/configuration/staff).

## Most common use case

When you are troubleshooting “why can’t I see this button/student?” start with this page first.

## Owner and admin visibility and actions

**Owners** and **admins** (sometimes called “admin mode” in the app) can:

* See all active students in the organization (subject to filters)
* Use full filters (year, language, grade, class, reading tier, search). Grade, class, and reading tier each support multiple selections (OR logic). Language stays a single selection on this page.
* Add students manually
* Import students from CSV
* Export students to CSV
* Open the [print roster view](/hflow/students/print-view) from the header (uses current filters)
* Open the [student home page](/hflow/students/student-home-page) from a student name
* Edit student name details from the row action
* Open Student Enrollment and remove a student from roster

Only **owners** manage staff invitations and roles under **Configuration → Staff**.

## Teacher visibility and actions

Teachers see only students within the union of active assignments (year + grade + optional class match).

Teacher behavior:

* Assignment-focused header (select one or more assignment rows; roster is the union of matches)
* Search within assigned roster
* Open the [print roster view](/hflow/students/print-view) for the selected assignment scope
* No Add Student, Import CSV, Export CSV, or edit-row actions
* Student home page access depends on assessment permissions:
  * If assessment access is enabled: clicking the student name opens the student home page
  * If disabled: names are read-only text and the home page is not available
* Notes are view-only on the student home page for teachers

## Role troubleshooting checklist

### 1) Teacher cannot see expected students

Check:

* Teacher has active assignment(s) for the current date
* Assignment school year and grade match student-year records
* If assignment class is set, class name must match

### 2) Teacher cannot open the student home page

Check:

* Teacher has assessment access enabled on their staff record (an **owner** sets this under **Configuration → Staff**)

### 3) “Missing” admin actions

Check:

* Current user role is **owner** or **admin** (not **teacher**)

<Note>
  Teachers see assignment pickers and search without import, export, or add-student actions. The layout is narrower than this admin example.
