Thanks so much Gavin_Jones I've just been told by a sales chat person that MS Business 365 Basic will give me access to the same functionality as I get in my school's Teams (education version). Is this nonsense?

Melanie2375 Hello again Melanie, I'm afraid you didn't get a correct answer from the sales person. It doesn't matter if you buy a Business (or Enterprise) subscription as it's not a Teams for Education subscription. You would certainly get the full desktop Teams client, but still only be able to access what your looking for with the eligible Teams for Education account. Think of Teams as an interface that is controlled in the back-end depending on what subscription is assigned to your account, easily explained.
