Total nightmare with Teams unable to control what students do

[m0bov]

Hi all, firstly I have created policies and assigned them to either Teachers or Students. I have a dynamic group with members in, this is assigned to my profiles.

 

The problem is (and I have checked specific users and their policy) that students are able to chat, mute and boot each other out.

 

Staff are checking only the presenter has rights under meeting options, also ALL chat options are off. Still its not making any differance.

 

Also I need to stop students creating Teams. It seems the control is non existing. Anyone else got this??

 

My chat and some users its off, but some just don't get the settings.

Make sure the staff are scheduling the meeting and selecting students as "attendees" in the meeting options.

 

If a teacher starts the meeting live then you wont be able to lock it down.

 

All your problems will be solved

Oh ok, yes I wondered about that. I have really scrutinised all the policies and check real examples. I have set the option about presenter rights to "Organizers, but users can override".

 

Am I right in thinking that if staff make their own meeting ad hoc, the policy does not apply straight away?

Ok, teachers have just checked, they are attendees, any ideas?? Also, I checked the settings on a meeting, it does show "Who can present?" as "Only Me". The list of those in the meetings are listed under "Attendees" with only 1 "Presenter" which is the teacher. I got the screenshots here so it all looks ok. Yet they still chat.

 

Thanks.

If they are attendees then they will still be able to comment in the team. You can change the type of comments in settings at the channel level >> manage channel >> permissions

 

Being an attendee they will not be able to mute others, take control of powerpoints or kick others out.

Hi, yes I understand it all now. It seems there is no policy to control Channels and the Teams themselves.
