Chat Feed
- For activity feed, go to your profile icon - settings- notifications and set to off if you don’t want any notifications at all for chat or anything else..Don’t really recommend doing it though..
Your admin has a policy set to have chat icon pinned it seems. Also private chat is à feature that is realt handy to use! For exempel of you just want to reach out to someone privately or someone not part of your teams
adam deltinger Thanks Adam, I will struggle through. I will have to keep notifications on of course and everyone I work with is in a Team so I don't need the extra chat and we have staff whats app for private msgs. Its only a problem for me as a teacher because I am new to this college and don't know all the students yet. Working remotely means that if one student talks to me on chat, outside of their subject (class) Team room I have to work out what subject I teach them first, what year they are and what grp/ Team classroom they are in, before I can answer a simple question like. ...'Can you help me with number 3' .........Its a very inefficient way to work of course so I was hoping to keep everyone's chat posts in their respective Teams so I would know who they were immediately. As you can imagine now students have access to their teachers outside of their timetabled 1.5hr lesson its like a free for all in my chat and activity feeds......
Thank you for trying to help me though.....
There are features that prohibits certain parts to communicate in private chats, for example students and teachers.

adam deltinger Hi Adam, that's great. I will stop students being able to private chat! Perfect. I have emailed our IT department to see if they are our Admin for Teams too... Many thanks!
