By default, we offer a four digit passcode - however, if required, a more complex 8 character passcode can be chosen. These are automatically generated after your pupils have been added. NOTE: this functionality is only accessible for school admins/leaders via their [school settings](https://app.pobble.com/account/school) page.   First, head to ['add pupils'](https://app.pobble.com/account/school/add-pupils)and then click 'change pupil passcode complexity' at the bottom of the screen.   ![](https://help.pobble.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-02-28%20at%2012-52-29-png.png)   You will be presented with two options \- **4 digit passcode**. These are easier to remember for pupils and allow for an easier sign in process. \- **8 character passcode**. These adhere to more stringent regulations (such as ST4S) and are more secure. However, they are harder for pupils to remember, making the pupil sign in process more challenging.   ![](https://help.pobble.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-02-28%20at%2019-14-51-png.png)   Next, if you would like to change the complexity, confirm you are sure by clicking 'change'.   ![](https://help.pobble.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-02-28%20at%2012-52-46-png.png)   Your passcodes will appear in the passcode column on the right hand side of your [pupil list,](https://app.pobble.com/dashboard) (after pupils have been added) for you to distribute or print.   ![Screen Shot 2023-02-28 at 12.53.03](https://help.pobble.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-02-28%20at%2012.53.03.png?width=688&height=497&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-02-28%20at%2012.53.03.png)     - [Setting up](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Quick set up](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#quick-set-up) - [Pobble admin role](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#pobble-admin-role) - [Adding teachers](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#adding-teachers) - [Adding pupils](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#adding-pupils) - [Organising pupils](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#organising-pupils) - [Training](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/setting-up?hsLang=en#training) - [Pobble 365](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Finding Resources](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#finding-resources) - [Creating Resources](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#creating-resources) - [Editing Resources](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#editing-resources) - [Sharing Resources](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#sharing-resources) - [Publishing tools](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#publishing-tools) - [Pupil tools - teacher support](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#pupil-tools-teacher-support) - [Pupil tools - pupil support](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#pupil-tools-pupil-support) - [Curriculum or scheme support](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-365?hsLang=en#curriculum-or-scheme-support) - [Moderation](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Making the most of Pobble moderation](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#making-the-most-of-pobble-moderation) - [Creating your first moderation files](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#creating-your-first-moderation-files) - [Using or editing existing moderation files](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#using-or-editing-existing-moderation-files) - [Running moderation sessions](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#running-moderation-sessions) - [Statutory Assessment](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/moderation?hsLang=en#statutory-assessment) - [Subscriptions and payments](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Payments](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#payments) - [Subscriptions](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#subscriptions) - [Cancellations](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#cancellations) - [Refunds](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#refunds) - [FAQs](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/subscriptions-and-payments?hsLang=en#faqs) - [Pobble Home](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-home?hsLang=en) - [Additional support](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Legal Introduction](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#legal-introduction) - [Legal FAQs](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#legal-faqs) - [GDPR](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#gdpr) - [Access](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#access) - [Parent support](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#parent-support) - [Responsible Data Use & Educational Partnerships](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/additional-support?hsLang=en#responsible-data-use-educational-partnerships) - [Pobble Schools](https://help.pobble.com/knowledge/pobble-schools?hsLang=en) - Home - Products - Pricing - Blog - Company [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.pobble.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Brand%20elements/Pobble%20logo%20RGB-2.png?width=85&height=55&name=Pobble%20logo%20RGB-2.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.pobble.com/?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2026, Pobble Education Ltd
