  1. Tip

    BoomBassadors are reading ambassadors in our system. They have permission to log reading for their peers in BoomReader. Promote only trusted pupils.

  2. Tip

    Download our support materials for BoomBassadors from: https://www.boomreader.co.uk/boombassadors

  3. From the **School Hub** menu, open the **Reader** settings screen.

    BoomReader school admins can promote BoomBassadors in their schools. If you are not an admin, ask your school administrators to promote the pupils you would like.

  5. Manage your BoomBassadors

    From this screen, you can see a list of existing BoomBassadors if you have any. You can remove a pupil's BoomBassador role by clicking the red back arrow. This does not delete the pupil; it only removes their BoomBassador role.
