Can I control which dashboard pages each role can see, such as location?

Skie for Enterprise · Updated

Short answer

Yes. Page access can be switched on or off per role, so you decide whether teachers, branch heads or parents see pages such as location, reports or the breach centre. It is how you limit location visibility to the people who need it. Roles also only see their own level of the hierarchy.

Two things limit what a person sees. The first is scope: a teacher sees their group, a branch head their branch, a school admin their school. The second is page access: within that scope, which pages can the role open at all?

Page access is set per role by the organisation. If your policy says only school admins and above may view live location, switch the location pages off for the teacher and parent roles. If you want teachers to see the breach centre for their own group, leave that on. The setting applies to everyone holding the role.

This is the practical answer to a common worry: can we restrict location access inside the school? Yes, by role. It also supports your written policy. Tracking a person's device needs clear consent and a written policy, the organisation provides the notice, and Skie provides the controls. This is general information, not legal advice.

The Skie team can see data for support, and Skie does not read private messages. Within your organisation, the combination of role, level and page access decides who sees device identity, location, installed apps, compliance status and rules applied.

If you are unsure what a role currently sees, invite a test user at the lowest level or review the role setting before rolling out. Changes to page access take effect for the whole role.

Practical tip: write the access table down, role by page, and put it in your device policy so staff and parents can see it.
