ms.topic: article

# Working with Microsoft Store for Education
Learn about education scenarios for Microsoft Store for Education. IT admins and teachers can use Microsoft Store to find, acquire, distribute, and manage apps.
Many of the [settings in Microsoft Store for Business](/microsoft-store/settings-reference-microsoft-store-for-business) also apply in Microsoft Store for Education. Several of the items in this topic are unique to Microsoft Store for Education.
## Basic Purchaser role
Applies to: IT admins
By default, when a teacher with a work or school account signs up for Microsoft Store for Education, the **Basic Purchaser** role is assigned to them. **Basic Purchaser** role allows teachers to:
- View the Minecraft: Education Edition product description page
- Acquire and manage Minecraft: Education Edition, and other apps from Store for Education
- Use info on **Support** (including links to documentation and access to support through customer service)
> [!NOTE]
> People with the **Basic Purchaser** role can only manage (assign and reclaim licenses) for apps that they purchased. They can't manage apps purchased by people with **Purchaser** or **Admin** roles.
Admins can control whether or not teachers are automatically assigned the **Basic Purchaser** role. You can configure this with **Make everyone a Basic Purchaser**. You'll find this on **Settings**, with **Shop** settings.
**To manage Make everyone a Basic Purchaser**
1. Sign in to [Microsoft Store for Education](https://educationstore.microsoft.com)
2. Click **Manage**, and then click **Settings**.
3. On **Shop**, select or clear **Make everyone a Basic Purchaser**.
> [!NOTE]
> **Make everyone a Basic Purchaser** is on by default.
When **Make everyone a Basic Purchaser** is turned off, admins can manually assign the role to teachers.
**To assign Basic Purchaser role**
1. Sign in to [Microsoft Store for Education](https://educationstore.microsoft.com)
2. Click **Manage**, and then choose **Permissions**.
3. On **Roles**, click **Assign roles**, type and select a name, choose the role you want to assign, and then click **Save**.
**Blocked Basic Purchasers**
When **Make everyone a Basic Purchaser** is on, admins can still manage which users have the **Basic Purchaser** role. An admin can unassign the **Basic Purchaser** role from a user, and the user is added to a list of **Blocked Basic Purchasers**. Admins can review who are **Basic Purchasers** and **Blocked Basic Purchasers** on **Permissions**.
## Private store
Applies to: IT admins
When you create your Microsoft Store for Education account, you'll have a set of apps included for free in your private store. Apps in your private store are available for all people in your organization to install and use.
These apps will automatically be in your private store:
- Word mobile
- Excel mobile
- PowerPoint mobile
- OneNote
- Sway
- Fresh Paint
- Minecraft: Education Edition
As an admin, you can remove any of these apps from the private store if you'd prefer to control how apps are distributed.
## Manage domain settings
Applies to: IT admins
### Self-service sign up
Self-service sign-up makes it easier for users in your organization to sign up for online services from Microsoft. We call this sign up process "self-service sign-up" because your users can sign up to use services paid by your subscription, or use free services, without asking you to take action on their behalf. For more information on self-service sign up, see [Using self-service sign up in your organization](https://support.office.com/article/Using-self-service-sign-up-in-your-organization-4f8712ff-9346-4c6c-bb63-a21ad7a62cbd?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US).
### Domain verification
For education organizations, domain verification ensures you are on the academic verification list. As an admin, you might need to verify your domain using the Microsoft 365 admin center. For more information, see [Verify your Office 365 domain to prove ownership, nonprofit or education status](https://support.office.com/article/Verify-your-Office-365-domain-to-prove-ownership-nonprofit-or-education-status-or-to-activate-Yammer-87d1844e-aa47-4dc0-a61b-1b773fd4e590?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US).
## Acquire apps
Applies to: IT admins and teachers
Find apps for your school using Microsoft Store for Business. Admins in an education setting can use the same processes as Admins in an enterprise setting to find and acquire apps.
**To acquire apps**
- For info on how to acquire apps, see [Acquire apps in Microsoft Store for Business](/microsoft-store/acquire-apps-windows-store-for-business#acquire-apps)
**To add a payment method - debit or credit card**
If the app you purchase has a price, you’ll need to provide a payment method.
- During your purchase, click **Get started! Add a way to pay.** Provide the info needed for your debit or credit card.
For more information on payment options, see [payment options](/microsoft-store/acquire-apps-windows-store-for-business#payment-options).
For more information on tax rates, see [tax information](/microsoft-store/update-windows-store-for-business-account-settings#organization-tax-information).
## Manage apps and software
Applies to: IT admins and teachers
## Manage purchases
IT admins and teachers in educational settings can purchase apps from Microsoft Store for Education. Teachers need to have the Basic purchaser role, but if they've acquired Minecraft: Education Edition, they have the role by default.
While both groups can purchase apps, they can't manage purchases made by the other group.
Admins can:
- Manage and distribute apps they purchased and apps purchased by other admins in the organization.
- View apps purchased by teachers.
- View and manage apps on **Manage**, under **Apps & software**.
Teachers can:
- Manage and distribute apps they purchased.
- View and manage apps on **Manage**, under **Apps & software**.
> [!NOTE]
> Teachers with the Basic purchaser role can't manage or view apps purchased by other teachers, or purchased by admins. Teachers can only work with the apps they purchased.
## Distribute apps
**To manage and distribute apps**
- For info on how to manage and distribute apps, see [App inventory management - Microsoft Store for Business](/microsoft-store/app-inventory-management-windows-store-for-business)
**To assign an app to a student**
1. Sign in to [Microsoft Store for Education](https://educationstore.microsoft.com).
2. Click **Manage**, and then choose **Apps & software**.
3. Find an app, click the ellipses under **Action**, and then choose **Assign to people**.
4. Type the email address, or name for the student that you're assigning the app to, and click **Assign**.
Employees will receive an email with a link that will install the app on their device. Click the link to start the Microsoft Store app, and then click **Install**. Also, in the Microsoft Store app, they can find the app under **My Library**.
### Purchase more licenses
Applies to: IT admins and teachers
You can manage current app licenses, or purchase more licenses for apps in **Apps & software**.
**To purchase additional app licenses**
1. Click **Manage**, click **Apps & software**, and then click an app.
2. Click **Buy more** to purchase more licenses</br>
You'll have a summary of current license availability.
## Manage order history
Applies to: IT admins and teachers
You can manage your orders through Microsoft Store for Business. For info on order history and how to refund an order, see [Manage app orders in Microsoft Store for Business](/microsoft-store/manage-orders-microsoft-store-for-business).
It can take up to 24 hours after a purchase, before a receipt is available on your **Order history page**.

# For IT administrators - get Minecraft: Education Edition

# For teachers - get Minecraft: Education Edition
The following article describes how teachers can get and distribute Minecraft: Education Edition at their school. Minecraft: Education Edition is available for anyone to trial, and subscriptions can be purchased by qualified educational institutions directly in the [Microsoft Admin Center by IT Admins](/education/windows/school-get-minecraft), via volume licensing agreements and through partner resellers.
## Try Minecraft: Education Edition for Free
Minecraft: Education Edition is available for anyone to try for free! The free trial is fully functional but limited by the number of logins (25 for teachers and 10 for students) before a paid license will be required to continue playing.
To learn more and get started, [download the Minecraft: Education Edition app here.](https://aka.ms/download)
## Purchase Minecraft: Education Edition for Teachers and Students
As a teacher, you will need to have your IT Admin purchase licenses for you and your students directly through the Microsoft Admin Center, or you may already have access to licenses at your school (through a volume license agreement) if you have an Office 365 subscription.
M:EE is included in many volume license agreements, however, only the administrators at your school will be able to assign and manage those licenses. If you have an Office 365 account, check with your school administration or IT administrator prior to purchasing M:EE directly.
#### Troubleshoot
If you're having trouble installing the app, you can get more help on our [Support page](https://aka.ms/minecraftedusupport).
