Understanding Accounts in Family Link
Google Family Link helps parents manage their child's Google account, including setting digital ground rules. Adding a school account allows the child to use services provided by their school (like Google Classroom or school email) within their supervised account environment. This integration can simplify accessing educational tools without needing to switch between different Google profiles.
Remember that the ability to add a school account and the functionalities available may depend on the policies set by the school's Google Workspace administrator.
