School Breaks
User should be allowed to create a calendar that mirrors the school calendar. Specifying breaks/holidays in the school schedule and the calendar automatically moves meetings accordingly. That way users do not have to delete meetings during a break/holiday.

Prevent students from deleting/cancelling meetings
Please put in an option to prevent students from deleting/cancelling meetings from the Calendar.
I have had a number of lessons cancelled by a student so none of the other students turn up.1 vote -
Hi, my daughter's teams is very cluttered and she has problems to find her lesson or links to lessons she missed almost every day.
There is no need for the cancelled repetitive meetings to show in the calendar for all weeks afterwards.

Hide attendees from the Teams app
Schools need to arrange meetings with parents and carers who do not have school Teams accounts - why is it only possible to "Hide attendees" (so attendees do not see each other's email addresses) via the settings in the online version of Outlook (not via Teams or the calendar app) - is Microsoft working to modify Teams?

calendar meeting for multiple channels
I need to add multiple channels (not just one) when creating a meeting in Teams. Since I teach two classes I want the students from both classes to see my office hours on their calendar

Choose my own times, for what is shown in the calendar.
I'd like to be able to reduce the times of day down to only showing working hours, more specifically school hours for my son.

There needs to be a way to prevent pupils from declining meetings
In our school pupils have discovered that they can decline meetings (lessons) set up in their calendars. This removes the lesson (or series) and they can tell their parents the teacher hasn't set any work or that there isn't a lesson. Parents are unaware of this trick and complain to the school.
There needs to an option for teachers to not let pupils decline meetings (lessons) so that they remain in the pupils calendar.

We need recurring tasks.
In the Planner app we desperately need to have a recurring task option. Not having it is an inefficiency that seems to be opposite of what Teams was created to do.

FindTime works well for setting appointments in Outlook - can it be made available in Teams as well?

Sync meetings from a new class to your calendar
Currently, when you are added to a new class team (this is often for me as an LSA) there is no easy way of adding all the pre-existing meetings to your calendar; I have to go through the posts for each and every class and add the meetings to my calendar manually. As, once you get to the meeting information, you only have to press one button to add it to your calendar, why can there not be an option on each class team to add existing meetings to your calendar? I feel that in the grand scheme of teams,…

Add non-meeting items to the calendar.
For some classes, I may not have a recurring meeting scheduled, such as labs. However, some people may still wish to block off their calendar for their own and others' sake. For example, I could look at my calendar and remember that my day is not as free as I thought it was, and it can mark my status leading up to the meeting even though it's not truly scheduled.

When choosing a custom repeat the date can you choose workweek only?
When choosing a custom repeat the date can you choose workweek only? Our school week is a 6-day rotation. We have class every two or three days. But the repeating schedule includes weekends when we don't have class so you can't really use it.
