IT will give students £2.50 per year, if they want more credit adding then they pay for an item on ParentPay and the finance team apply the credit manually. But TBH, it's only really our GCSE/A-Level Art students that buy more credit.

Morning all, Our Science department have bought some Genee Vision 50 visualisers and the install instructions say to insert the disk that comes in the box, but the box contains no disk (useful I know). Has anyone bought these and managed to get them working at all?

We use Adobe Reader's Read Out Loud feature which works really well for PDFs, just not those that have been scanned.

Hi all, our science department are looking into using some wireless visualisers so they can present from away their desks. Has anyone got any experiences with either the Genee Vision GV50UHD or the Easi-View Wireless Visualiser?

Hi all, Wondering if anyone else has come across the same issue that we're having. We've recently enabled 2FA for all students in Office 365 for outside school, but it's come to light that a member of SLT/HOY has told some parents that they should make their kids share their Office 365 password with them so they can check on their Teams account for homework etc. So now we have parents logging into 365 before the kids and setting up 2FA to their phones, and now kids are complaining they cannot login. Does anyone know if it's possible to add parents to Teams? Or is it a case of telling parents they shouldn't using their kids accounts and sharing password. Thank you.

We've limited this to just our techs because of how intermittent it is. We've found that if an iPhone restarts after an update or dying, the app needs to be reopened for the automatic sign in to work. We also setup the scheduled reminders bit which makes you check whether you got the notification to say you've been signed in.

If it's Office 365, you can use the Compliance search: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/ediscovery-search-for-and-delete-email-messages?view=o365-worldwide

We had this problem last month when we noticed that Twitter had changed their API. I played about with a few plugins and managed to get this one working: https://www.wordpress.org/plugins/twitter-tweets

I can't eat burgers like a "normal" person... Saying that, it's rubbed off on the other half and she does it now! I've got to eat the bun, burger, salad bun. The whole picking it up and eating it is too OTT for me!

It could be unrelated, we had this a few days ago with our Sophos XG330. We spoke with our support company (Wave 9) and they apparently had to renew a couple of certificates on their side
