How do I set this up 

for my child?

If you want to set up parental controls for your 

child, it’s important that you sign in using your 

child’s personal Google Account. If they don’t 

already have one, you can create one during 

the sign-in process on your Chromebook. You 

will be able to add your child’s school account 

after you complete device onboarding.
