Every new brightwheel school is created with three Demo students named Alex, Mia, and Russ. These practice profiles are valuable for administrators and staff members to see how brightwheel works and to test different features! Any activity logged for these students will not appear in reports, or other aggregated data.

Whether your school is new to brightwheel or you're introducing a new teacher, Demo students are a perfect tool for learning!

All three Demo students will automatically populate in the Demo Room upon creating your school account. This provides an opportunity to familiarize yourself with brightwheel and explore its features.

As teachers go through the Teacher Training Overview, they can practice what they're learning and experiment with their day-to-day actions. 

If the profiles have not yet been archived, they can be found on the Student list and the profile can be searched by name.

If the profiles have been archived by changing their enrollment status, any active enrollment status filters will need to be removed before the profiles can be searched by name:

If you no longer wish for Demo Student Profiles to appear in classrooms, you'll want to archive the profiles and remove their room assignments. Although Demo students can't be deleted, archiving hides them from view while keeping the profiles accessible for later use.

To archive student profiles:

The Demo Room can be deleted by following our steps to Modify or Remove a Room. We don't recommend repurposing, or retitling the room as it is specifically designed for testing and has small functional differences from regular rooms.
