A school account vs. a private one

Two doors — two keys.

School is not Discord and Discord is not school

A school account carries your name, class, homework, marks. School manages it. A teacher sees what goes under it. A private account is yours or the family’s — a game, chat with friends, email from parents.

The rule from Prep still holds:

When you mix them, one mistake hits both. A password leak from a game will not threaten school — when they are different passwords and different accounts.

💡

A school email for registering a game = school sees spam, a leak, a scam. A parent will help set up a family or game email separately.

What belongs where

School accountPrivate / game
Google Classroom, Bakaláři, school DriveA game, Discord with friends (with a parent)
Homework, presentations for a teacherA profile with a nickname
Talking to a teacherFamily Netflix — a parent decides

Google Classroom is not WhatsApp. Memes you would not send at the board do not belong in school chat. A school password does not belong in a game chat.

The same password = one key to two houses

When you have the same password for school and a game:

Each service a different sentence. The vault remembers. You remember the main lock of the vault.

What to say

“Sign in to the game with the school mail.”

“The game has its own account. School is for school.”

“Send the password to school Drive.”

“A password does not belong on Drive. I will ask a parent about the vault.”

How it fits the projects

👤 Safer profile. A game profile ≠ school name + class.

Family vault. School and a game as two records — different passwords.

🏠 Family rules. I do not lend a school account.

Now you 💪

With a parent, write two lines for the audit: school account (who knows the password), game/private (a different email yes/no).

  1. Is the game account on the same email as school? If yes, a plan to separate — with a parent, not necessarily today immediately.

  2. Are the passwords the same? If yes, prepare a new sentence in the vault for one service.

  3. Into the rules: School and a game = a different password.

Check: Two doors, two keys. You do not lend a school account. A game profile without school + a surname.
