I am a teacher and wish to enter a tick in a row next to a set of speadsheet

Where you want the tick, press <Alt>251, to get √. Remember to use the
numeric keypad, and NOT the numerals in the top row of the keyboard to do
that.

Iow, press and hold the <Alt> key, while you type in 251, then release the
<Alt> key
