From https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/limits-specifications-teams 1 To give and take control of shared content during sharing, both parties must be using the Teams desktop client. Control isn't supported when either party is running Teams in a browser. This is due to a technical limitation that we're planning to fix. 2 Blur my background isn't available when you run Teams in a browser. This feature is only available in the Teams desktop client. 3 Teams meetings on browsers are limited to a single incoming video feed of active speaker. We are a Google shop here, so I may be wrong but I also seem to recall the web version of teams limits the amount of people you can see at once to a smaller number?

If you are needing anything like 100% accuracy your only real recourse is a turnstile entrance We had one school with this system and it actually worked OK

is this Cambridgeshire or Northamptonshire?

Exactly! Go Outdoors will genuinely be missed. Not always the cheapest, but not rip off merchants like some other outdoor/hiking/climbing/walking outlets

We have a separate email address for student and parent queries that go to our technical champions (from the teaching staff) who field 90% of them successfully. Genuine technical questions go to IT Support to investigate on a best effort basis. When needed we ship out a chromebook/MiFi device. Whilst students are expected to access a device at home to work we have an obligation to support them as best as possible. - - - Updated - - - Separate email address for the duration?

What is the best lesson in the world for one student would be useless for another. And that is not just down to ability. Teaching styles and in-lesson feedback from students are so important.

The same reason people will pay extra for live instructor led training For whatever reason it is more engaging to have the SME in front of you, in real time. Adapting lessons on the fly is also a lot easier if you delivering live. Ask any teacher and they will tell you that preparing a good lesson is half the battle, its adapting to meet the pace of your class that makes up the rest

It's rare laptop or desktop leases save money in state schools in my experience You pay less than the capital cost by usually 10%, but you are then obliged to lease again in a shorter time frame than most school's purchasing cycle.

Edu24 - Anyone familiar with them?
Zammo replied to mitchell1981's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
I would be dubious without very good references Cant find them on companies house LinkedIn - 1 follower, no posts Twitter - 0 Followers, no activity No google search results other than their own website that I can see They may be great, but approach with caution -
No different to a shelf stacker in a supermarket, NHS worker, bin man or hundreds of other jobs that have carried on. Correct PPE for the cleaner would be a must

Is anyone else still waiting for the email asking for them to register and complete the "Forecast Survey"? We had the one from Computacenter informing us of our allocation as a MAT, but no follow up email yet

Hi GAM Is a command line tool yes. I have used it for bulk user manipulation and deleting of an email sent to many people. It uses Python IIRC?
-
Agreed. I have seen all sorts of setups and SIMS is never, ever "fast". Someone once (possibly on here) pulled out some of the queries and/or code from SIMS and even to my untrained eye it was a mess. Dead tables, queries that never return anything etc. Also IIRC some sort of backward compatibility for the likes of Exams module, old System Manager users and NOVA-T

Biometric fingerprints - polish school fined!
Zammo replied to Jaymate's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
I have yet to come across a laptop that runs slower if you dont use a fingerprint or a phone that has reduced battery life if you choose not to enable biometrics In the case linked the school were deliberately putting non-biometric users at a disadvantage Similarly I have not come across either where the use of biometrics is *mandated* and then stored on a device that you have no control over Apples and massive oranges To round it off you are not even right when you say people prefer them on laptops https://laptopstudy.com/best-laptop-fingerprint-reader/ Very few laptops I see have built in readers, and I dont know of anyone who uses one at home Phones are a different beast as they are accessed dozens or hundreds of times a day. -
I clearly meant if the person with the device goes into a meeting and therefore isn’t going to answer their phone. As someone else said, more holes than a sieve. Get a proper man down alarm or don’t do it at all. Scripts, Android watches, PBX scripting, signing in and out, bosses having to check daily messages, uptime checks...it sounds horrible tbh

That would be crazy annoying and would be a nightmare if the person was in a meeting or something Stick to a proper product I would say
