I don't believe there is anything like this currently, but does anyone know a way of taking what current academic week it is from SIMS. we run a 2 week schedule and have the current week displayed on the digital signage around the school, instead of having to manually change it every week i was trying to automate it through our academic calendar. Any ideas?

We do that, we have a tool distributed to all teacher stations that allows them to perform password resets.

That was pretty much what i was after, but if we did a blanket ban we'd be getting complaints from teachers that students cant access their work!

Mostly through catching students doing things they shouldn't be doing via Impero

We're trying not to do a blanket ban unfortunately, just stop certain offending devices being allowed onto the network

I've been having a problem with students passing round USB drives with content we don't want them using (flash games / music / etc.) is there anyway of creating or using a blacklist to stop certain USB devices being accessed on the network, i can see a lot of whitelist solutions but that's not really what i'm after.
