Hello Darpan,

I have the same problem, I didn't get the opion to create new teams as class using my admin login and now there is no way of changing the type of existing teams to class in order to be able to use assignments, grades and other educational apps! Please kindly let me know if there is a way of merging two teams if i create new class teams and merge them with existing team to keep variouls posts already on the original teams.

Best wishes,

Based on your description, we understand that you don't have the option to create a "Class Team and your other users also cannot create class team on Microsoft Teams, if so, in this given situation, we would like to suggest you that kindly try to contact to your IT admin of the organization for further assistant about this thing.

Because, generally IT admin of the organization may restrict to users for creating a class team or other teams on Microsoft Teams. Here are some detailed information article for your reference purpose.

1. Allow users to create teams

2. Restrict users from creating class teams in Microsoft Teams
