ChessKid understands that you may not always be working with a student indefinitely, so you have several options to remove a Kid's account from your Teacher/Coach account:
Kids you still work with but no longer purchase Gold Memberships for
💡 This keeps the kid on your kids' list and maintains your guardian status, but you will no longer provide them with Gold access.
To disable the Gold Membership from your kids you need to click on 'Manage' in the menu at the top of your adult account and select 'Kids'
Click on the 'X' icon in the badge next to your kid's username to disable the Gold:
Kids you no longer work with but who may still log in to their ChessKid accounts, such as students who have graduated or moved to another school
💡 The kid will no longer appear in your Kids list, but their account will still exist.
Any kid is welcome to play with a Free account! We recommend simply disassociating your teacher or coach account from students you no longer teach.
From your adult account click on 'Manage' in the menu at the top and select 'Kids'
Click on the three stacked lines next to the kid account and select 'Edit Kid'
Click on 'Remove Guardianship' and select 'OK' on the pop-up confirmation message.
Alternatively, if a student's parent would like to purchase a Gold Membership individually for their child, you can transfer primary guardianship of the account to the parent by selecting 'Edit Guardianship' instead:
Kids who no longer use their ChessKid account at all:
💡 This option completely disables the account. It will no longer appear in your Kids list, and the student will no longer be able to use the account.
From your adult account click on 'Manage' in the menu at the top and select 'Kids'
Click on the three stacked lines next to the kid account and select 'Edit Kid'
On this new page, scroll down and click on 'Disable Account'
Click 'Ok' on the pop-up confirmation message to delete the kid account and remove it from your 'My Kids' list.
