Jamf Parent allows parents to have control over screen time and apps on their child's school issued iPad.
When does the Jamf Parent App Work?
-
Parents have the option of setting time and content controls outside of school hours. Therefore, parental controls will not be in effect on weekdays between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm but can be established outside of this timeframe.
-
Parents will have the ability to control the iPads during extended school holidays day and night.
What should I know before I enable parental controls?
It's important to discuss with your children any specific needs they have for the iPad before implementing parental controls. Some sample questions are included below.
-
How much time do you need each evening for homework?
-
How much time do you need over the weekend for homework?
-
What time do you typically finish your homework?
How do I enable parental controls?
The District uses a software called JAMF to manage our iPads, and parental controls are available through a feature called JAMF Parent.
