ChrisWebbTech: I meant team type in terms of the distinction between Class, Professional Learning Community, Staff, or Other.

  In case you have E5 Subscription you can Label the Teams in the Azure AD according to the Classification you are looking from the Management Standpoint.

    RealTime_M365 I am a fairly new user of MS Teams (as many, these days). I don't know these terms:
    E5 Subscription
    Label the Teams
    Azure AD
    Classification
    Management Standpoint
    The situation that some of us ended up in is that we created a team, making some kind of choice without being aware of all the consequences. And then it starts to matter. So, it would be good to get confirmation about the team type (that is the terminology used when creating a team in our set-up). Even the addition "for EDU" is new for me.
    
    Anyways, thanks for all the responses. That is the quickest way to learn.

  I believe that the kind of Team created in regards of template being used is not displayed so I'm not aware of an easy way to know the template used to created the Team

Hi ChrisWebbTech

In case the Team is a Public it would show as Org Wide in case the Team is Private it would show as Team.
