Renfield-64 Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Hi Does anyone know if there is a way of disabling spelling, punctuation and grammar in Word etc? Some teachers have asked that it be turned off as kids are just using it rather than learning the proper way. Is it likely that I would have to turn it off across the whole network? Office 2013 is installed on all PCs thro' group policy. Anyone had experience of this?
CamelMan Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Would making them use WordPad be easier? Its what we do for Exams for the same reason.
Renfield-64 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 The problem with Wordpad is its ok if they're just doing a bit of typing but if its project work etc, with pictures and wordart its not really up to it.

ADMaster Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Do you have the office 2013 admx templates in your policy store? There should be options in there to control spell check.
Arthur Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Anyone had experience of this? Yes.... www.edugeek.net/forums/office-software/150363-office-word-2010-2013-disable-spell-check-student-exams.html For step one I would copy the latest Office 2013 Group Policy templates to your central store if you haven't already done so. i.e. \\YourDomain\sysvol\YourDomain\Policies\PolicyDefinitions
Renfield-64 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Posted March 20, 2015 Ok thanks guys, I'll try these out. Cheers.
