Statement
Google Workspace for Education pricing and licensing (2026-09-24): every active user needs an Education Fundamentals license, and paid Education Standard or Education Plus subscriptions must cover every user with a Fundamentals license. From 2025 there is a single license type (no free staff license per four student licenses). Minimum purchase quantity = total student enrollment (full and part time) plus active staff using Fundamentals; 50 licenses minimum where that total is under 50. Service Specific Terms §22.3 (2026-08-31): Google may require disclosure of enrollment and active staff and require additional licenses if the actual total is higher.
