This article is for teachers. Administrators, go here.
To use SIS integration features, all teachers must have one of the following:
- A Google Workspace for Education Plus licence
- A Teaching and Learning Upgrade licence
Starting on 9 July 2024, you must have one of these licences in order to use the mark export feature.
If you use Classroom with Google Workspace for Education, you can connect Classroom to your SIS. After your administrator configures the connection, you can link your classes and use SIS integration features like importing student rosters and exporting marks to SIS. Learn more about SIS integration features.
Important: SIS integration is available with numerous partners. Other SIS partnerships are in development. Learn about SIS integration partnership status.

- Mark categories carry over if the category titles match. If they don't match, your marks might be assigned to a default category or marked as 'Uncategorised'.
- PowerSchool SIS:
- Mark categories must be attached to an assignment in order to be exported successfully. Make sure that the grade category titles match in Classroom and PowerSchool SIS.
