What Admins Need to Know Now
Updated Jun 17, 2025
Version 2.0We previously disabled Copilot for students by using the CNAME redirection/HTTP header injection, followed up by setting our tenant to K12. My understanding was that this would block sign-in to Copilot for users assigned a M365 for Students license, but allow sign-in for users assigned M365 for Staff licenses.
We don't currently use/set the ageGroup attribute.
How does the change referenced in this blog impact our current setup? If we want to continue blocking all student access (including ages 13+) to Copilot, do we need to start applying the ageGroup attribute to all our users. Or will our students still be blocked from signing into Copilot?
