I am going to be using SP for education classes I offer several times a year. The site url/pages will be the same for each class, but I want each class to have their own forum. 

 

Example: Summer 2014, Fall 2014, Winter 2015

When each class is completed, I will lock the forum topics for that class.

So, it will be 1 forum shared by different classes. 

What’s the best way to set up and organize the forum? 

Thank you!

We have several users who utilise SP like this within education.

You should be able to do what you need using the right set-up of User Groups and permissions. I would start out by reading through the ‘Getting Started’ section of our codex which tries to give a simple explanation of thr user groups/permissions access control model.
