SkieHow do I add seats in Skie when more students join mid-year?
Ask the Skie team to grant more seats. The Skie owner grants seats to an organisation, and once they are added you can provision the new devices. Until then, enrolment pauses when the free seats run out. Releasing devices of students who have left is the quickest way to reuse existing seats.
A new batch joins in October, or a branch opens, and you need more devices managed. Seats are the number of devices your licence covers, so the number has to go up first.
Contact the team with the number you need and the licence period. Pricing is on request, and the quote is based on seats. When the seats are granted, they appear on your licence, and the organisation admin can provision new devices up to that count.
Meanwhile, look at your free seats. Devices of students who have left can be released, replaced or removed, and each frees a seat. A school that tidies its roster before adding seats often needs fewer than it thought.
For the new devices, each one is enrolled with a one-time token fetched automatically during provisioning. The model and the licence are checked first, and a provisioning session is run per group. If it is a new model, it goes through the one-time model review, and rollout help is available for larger batches.
Skie does not promise numbers for scale. If you plan a large rollout, talk to the team so the work can be planned with you.
Practical tip: ask for seats a little before you need them. Provisioning is quick once you have them, and it avoids a queue of tablets waiting on a licence.
