Deactivating pauses a student and takes them off future lessons but keeps their records. To remove a student for good, see Delete a student instead.

Deactivate a student

On the student’s profile (or their row in the Students list), open the menu, choose Deactivate, and confirm.
The Deactivate confirmation dialog with its copy, 'removed from all future lessons / individual lessons will be deleted and group lessons will continue without them' and 'Reactivate this student by adding them to a new lesson'
Once you confirm:
  • The student’s status changes to Inactive, and they move to the Inactive tab on the Students list.
  • They’re removed from all future lessons. Lessons just for them are deleted; group lessons carry on without them.
  • Their financial history and open charges are unaffected: charges stay billable through the student’s account.

Reactivate a student

To bring a student back, open the menu on the Inactive student and choose Activate. This opens the new-event modal with the student already added: adding them to a lesson reactivates them. To fill in and save the lesson, see Create an event.
Deactivating is reversible and leaves finances intact, so it’s the safe choice when a student might return. A Locked student has no Activate or Deactivate option; see Plans and limits.
