Google Meet - School wants to hide teachers emails when 'Meeting' parents.

[TwistedHelixis]

Primary school needs to run a few Google Meetings with parents soon but have requested the parents don't know what the teachers email addresses are.

 

Initially I thought we could just setup a few disposable Gmail accounts, but then remembered the teachers have enough issues switching between personal and work accounts.

 

I am now thinking about aliases, but then think they will have the same issue as above.

 

Are there any ways around this issue? Otherwise I'll just create some extra accounts.

We set up KS1, KS2, ect group emails the teachers in each group all have access to those emails just for this sort of thing.

 

We didn't worry about teachers switching accounts as they do it anyway.

 

Had no complaints

Any reason why you are hiding emails?

Generally the teachers don't communicate with the parents the office do. I would imagine the want to keep it that way. BTW its the same in every primary school I have ever worked in.

As the Calendar invite appears to come from the account user, it's going to be very difficult to hide the email address.

Will probably just create some disposable accounts then

Fair enough.

 

The three primary schools I used to work at all communicate with parents via email when I worked there and it was set up before I did.

Agreed

 

 

 

We've got staff emails visible, I mean frankly I think they should be contactable within reason.
