Jamf Pro automatically creates an associated EDU profile that is installed on the teacher devices and student iPads. This allows the devices to communicate. It also ensures that students can log in to a Shared iPad device if Shared iPad is enabled on the iPad.The class configuration is applied to the student and teacher devices when the devices check in with Jamf Pro.
In Jamf Pro, click Computers or Devices in the sidebar.
Click Classes.

If you are importing a large number of classes (e.g., 10,000), a progress bar indicates the import status in the assistant during the process. You can click Done and perform other management tasks while the import takes place.
If you import users from Apple School Manager that match current users in Jamf Pro, you can choose to match the imported user with the current user, or create a new user in Jamf Pro with the information imported from Apple School Manager.
