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.

Dear Rebecca and other teachers that have experience with the "weekly parental digest", I'm a young soon to be teacher from Zürich, Switzerland and I'm writing my master thesis around the topic of this parental control function of Teams. Since Teams is only slowly making its way into our school system and the parental digest function wasn't available here until shortly, I'm looking for someone to talk to who has experience with it. I would appreciate it very much if we could chat about that topic! If you could find half an hour for me during the summer break just send me a short mail to urechstefan@gmail.com Thank you very much in advance!

This is gap between what google classroom offer and Teams. If seen comments form people at Microsoft suggesting a solution is - logging in as your child. I fond this quite strange because what if I then post something as my child? how would the teacher know who it was. I'd also like to see the separation of classwork Vs Home work and the ability to review the RUBIC information in detail.

We have developed a parent app that provides a parents visibility to Teams tasks in real time. Let me know if it's of interest and I can share more details. richard.belson@fireflylearning.com

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?

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.

This is a no brainer requirement if MS Teams is the preferred choice of Schools
