Hello!

I always find it hard to use the plural form of a verb with a singular noun...

Therefore, can you confirm this sentence is correct, please?

"The other group have cancelled their lesson".

Thank you!

No. It should be "has canceled"
 
Thank you.

"has cancelled its or their lesson'?

Thank you
 
"The (other) group have cancelled their lesson" is acceptable in BrE.
