Teacher Guide
Understand teacher detection, chalk, stamina changes and classroom coverage in Worst Class Ever, with current demo updates separated from untested tactics.
Your job is identification
The teacher is searching for human troublemakers inside a much larger group of NPC students. Seeing movement is a starting clue, not the same thing as identifying an opponent. Official updates changed NPC behavior, including what classmates do after leaving a seat. Guides built around a single old NPC tell can stop being useful after a patch.
A sensible observation routine is to connect an action to a location, keep that location in view, and decide whether there is enough evidence to pursue. This is advice drawn from the game’s detection premise; it is not a guaranteed identification exploit.

Chalk and captures
The publisher describes chalk as part of the teacher’s method of calling out offenders, followed by punishment near the teacher’s desk. The October 16 patch also fixed instances where chalk failed to hit students. That establishes chalk as a real mechanic, but it does not supply a reliable range, projectile speed or universal hit formula.
When a throw behaves unexpectedly, distinguish an aiming mistake from a technical problem before changing your entire strategy. Record the game version and what happened if you need to report it. An earlier bug being listed as fixed does not prove every similar-looking miss is now impossible.
Stamina rewards changed in October
The October 19 notes linked some teacher stamina recovery to matches with more students. The October 21 announcement then described extra stamina following a successful capture. Read these as dated balance changes, rather than two separate bonuses that can automatically be added together.
The practical takeaway is that successful captures can support the teacher’s ability to keep applying pressure. The notes do not publish the amount recovered, a maximum reserve or an exact recovery equation. Do not plan around an invented number or assume unlimited pursuit.
If you are comparing sessions, record student count as well as the patch. A teacher facing a smaller group is not necessarily playing under the same balance conditions as one facing the largest demo lobby.
Cover routes instead of following noise blindly
Students gained crawling between classroom furniture and access to back doors in the October 21 update. That gives the teacher more than the main aisle to consider. A useful check after losing a target is the next visible route or doorway, rather than assuming the student must still be standing where the chase began.
Use room-specific information. The Computer Lab added on October 23 creates a different monitoring problem from an ordinary classroom. Avoid carrying a fixed patrol pattern into every setting. The classroom guide explains the environments that official material actually identifies.
Keep confirmed tools separate from a complete loadout
The publisher names cameras and radar as teacher gadgets, but its description does not give placement limits, detection radius or a confirmed item-by-item demo inventory. Treat those names as a reason to inspect the available loadout, not proof that a particular device will appear in every session.
For your first few matches, concentrate on repeatable decisions: observe, identify, pursue, then reassess the remaining classroom. The official material does not establish a universal best teacher build, precise wrong-accusation penalties or a complete binding chart. Those details should be checked in the live interface before being presented as rules.
