Microsoft Teams is a workplace and education communication platform used by most UK schools as their primary digital learning environment. It combines video calling, chat, file sharing, and class management. Teams for Education is specifically configured for schools and has more restrictive defaults than the commercial version, but misuse by pupils is common and parents are often unaware of the extent to which children communicate on Teams outside school hours.
Children use Teams primarily to receive assignments, submit work, join video lessons, and communicate with teachers. However, Teams also has private chat features that pupils use to communicate with each other — sometimes in ways that schools are not aware of. Group chats between pupils can be created within the Teams environment and may be used for bullying, sharing inappropriate content, or excluding classmates.
