Chromebook - Enable onscreen keyboard for Ukrainian pupil

[TwistedHelixis]

We have a Ukrainian pupil that has just been given a Chromebook. I need to give him access to the on-screen keyboard but the only way is to open the settings cog, but we have that disables.

 

Is there anyway for us to open the on screen keyboard without giving the pupil access to the Chromebook settings pages?

Not sure how I missed it but it looks like I might be able to force it out from admin system.

 

I'll have a play and update.

Google Admin > Devices > Chrome > Settings > Users & browers > [select suitable OU] > Accessibility > Accessibility options in the system tray menu > Set to "Show accessibility options in the system tray menu"

 

That'll negate the need for users in that OU to have to open the cog menu: they can just toggle accessibilty options there in the clock panel.
