Issue of the Day

[SimpleSi]

Mr Walters - Mr Walters - no internet in class x

 

I get to classX - (in summer hols - computer got moved across the class so I had to put wifi dongle in as no net point nearby)

someone has removed the wifi dongle

 

I sling an emergency 15m cable across the room and have lunch

 

After ringing other part time teacher who does mon-wed who says it wasn't them, TA holds up dongle - "is this not a USB memory drive?"

I went round the entire site during the end of the holiday to make sure everything was done. No unexpected movements.

Question is - why did the TA interfere if they didn't know what it even was? Do you a heavy-duty cluebat to hand?

Today:

Teacher - my partner has changed my ipad lock code but can't remember what they changed it to

 

Cue Factory reset

Latest iOS you'd still be up the creek. Can't factory reset without the code.

Very annoying when staff leave and don't give us their code and appleID.

So what do you do then?

[peterp]

Get the school to give us their contact details and phone them. As to what to do when they have forgotten their ID (just happened) we haven't found out yet.

This is why you need to get the devices supervised. You can then use an MDM of your choice to remove the passcode.
