Why can’t I copy a class?
If you are experiencing problems in copying a class, you can do two different things: check your Internet or check for restrictions. Sometimes, Internet problems are the common cause why some functions in the Google Classroom aren’t working. Also, there might be restrictions from the administrator. Ask for access first and try to copy the class again.
