Permission/GP for Students to Download Office ProPlus from O365

[Squan_JRP]

We plan on having our students install their own copy of Office through the free OfficePro Plus licenses that are available through Office365 to them on to our school-owned device.

 

Normally, however, our group policy does not allow students to install their own applications (nor do we want it to).

 

What could be a method of getting around this, basically allowing only the installation of Office Pro Plus?

Why have the students install it?

We were under the impression they had to by logging in to their O365 account? Is there another method to deploy it and have them use those own licenses?

There's a number of ways you can deploy it, just like any other Office License.

Where is the facepalm emote when you need it....

 

The office 365 download is for there home use. Not school!
