I use plex for school but the big problem I’m having is that the students need to log in themselves and that means using the main account name to log in which would give them acess to the settings and also delete the account. are there any ways to getting around this

You could create a “student” user and share library with that user. This is how ever outisde the scope of which plex was crated ideally you would want a LADP integration with Active Directory.
