Work is set and marked in ATLAS (Active Teaching, Learning and Assessment Space), Students normally never need to go into ATLAS.

PebblePad Assignments
The part of PebblePad where students submit their asset to an Assignment is called ATLAS. Students normally never need to go into this area. You cannot see a student's work until they submit to ATLAS (unless they Share it via email).
Before students can submit work, a Workspace must be set up for that module or class of students.
Workspaces are set up by the Academic Administration
