Live Parent Access to Assignment Details

The parent digest isn't enough for most of our parents, they want to be able to see the data on any day of the week.

The ability to log in (or have an app) and only see homework activities set every day (the ability, ie a tick box, to identify homework vs classwork activities would be ideal) to keep track of assignments is needed.

At the moment we have to use another app for this which doubles up on admin and means we are writing in one tool that the work is in Teams.

    Other apps already provide this, which will cause our school to move away from teams if it cannot compete...

    I would like to see parental access to Teams.
    It is an absolute necessity for parents to have access to our children's Teams to enable us to be supporting in our child's education and up to date with their current assignments projects and homework and currently in the pandemic with the prospect of more distant learning ever more so. It is quite shocking that we have to appeal to Microsoft to make this an option added and not already included.

    This is a must. Please can let parents sign into the Teams app so they can see student assignments?
    Thanks

    I would love to know what homework my children have so I can support them.

    As a parent I would fully support being able to check daily/ weekly school work so as to support my child and keep them focused. It is exasperating to receive a retrospective email stating an assignment had not been submitted when not even aware it’s been requested. I’m also very concerned in the event of a lockdown work from home supporting my child’s education.

    As a parent I would be able to better support my child with home assignments if I were able to view the allocated assignment due dates.

    It would be brilliant if parents/carers could see the homework for several reasons: one being they know what their child is given for each subject; they may be able to help; they can see if it complete.

    I would like to see what my daughter has set for homework each week to make sure it is handed in on time

    I need access to my daughters Microsoft teams to help and see she completes all in time and correctly

    This is available in other apps (e.g. Class Charts) and is a useful way to help us as parents support our children. It's one of the things I have missed since our school started using Teams and would be a useful addition to Teams.
