That’s a pain. The user might have a device or app using an old password, which could be locking the account. Check for things like email clients or mobile devices trying to log in. You could also enable account lockout tracking in AD to pinpoint the issue.

Focus on G-Admin for managing assignments since it has the most accurate data. Once that's updated, you can consider syncing it with AssistTiger.For extra Chromebooks, aim for about 10-15% of your student count, so around 40-60 extras should work.

Schools could check out Microsoft's discounts for A3 or A5 licenses to save some cash. Another idea is sharing licenses with bigger institutions to cut costs. Also, saas subscription management could help with spending and budgeting, which could help schools save on subscriptions and make smarter choices.

I totally get where you’re coming from—it’s tricky to monitor what students are typing without installing something on their devices. When I worked on a similar issue, we used a web filtering service that kept track of the sites visited and flagged anything inappropriate. It didn’t show everything they typed, but it definitely helped us catch some red flags. You could also look into network monitoring tools that give you an overview of traffic. Just remember to be open with the students about why you’re monitoring things; it helps build trust and keeps the lines of communication open.

I've definitely had some trouble with the latest SIMS update, too. It really messed up the Wonde and Groupcall links, which I rely on for syncing data with other systems. I was caught off guard since I expected everything to be ready after the August release, but when they pushed it out early, it left me scrambling to find workarounds.

I totally get the stress with a new car, especially when something goes wrong right away, like your thermostat! At least the garage fixed it fast. You might still feel nervous until you take it on a long drive without any problems, so maybe try a weekend trip to chill out a bit. Also, I found this cool article about how new cars get transported, and they really take good care of them. Same should go for used cars if you bought from a good place. It’s worth checking how your car was handled to avoid issues. Here's the link if you're curious: https://www.a1autotransport.com/how-are-brand-new-cars-transported/

Besides AirTags, you could consider using Tile trackers. They're pretty discreet and work similarly

I'm curious to see how this will impact students

Part-exchange is great and I wanted to try it, but my house was not qualified for the programme because the area is less desirable, so it's harder to resell. Then, I found out about The Property Buying Company, which is a very good alternative. They buy any house from any area, in any condition and I got my money in 2 weeks.

You can still manually enroll the iPads in Apple School Manager, even if they weren’t pre-enrolled. When my school got new iPads, we had to do the same thing. You’ll need to use Apple Configurator on a Mac or PC to get them added. Just make sure you have the serial numbers ready—it makes the process smoother.

Hey! That sounds like a challenging situation. I've dealt with some similar setups before. If you're using a Smoothwall appliance, definitely look into its user authentication features. They can help track web activity by username, which is crucial for compliance. In my experience, using a Smoothwall browser can simplify things, but I’d recommend testing it to see if it works well with your Apple devices. Also, check if there’s a way to integrate Apple’s user accounts for smoother monitoring.

If you wanna manage your social media easier, try Hootsuite or Buffer. You can schedule posts, handle multiple accounts, and check engagement all in one spot. Super simple to use. I’ve also had good results with best smm panel. Their panels helped me grow my audience and boost engagement. Definitely worth a look!
