SkieWho can open the location page, and can access be limited by role?
Access to the location page is set per role. The organisation decides which roles can open it, so a teacher might see only their own class, a branch head the branch, and a parent nothing at all. Parents have read-only access on school devices, and the school chooses whether they see location.
Location is the most sensitive page in the dashboard, so Skie does not treat it as visible to everyone by default. Page access can be switched on or off per role. Roles run from organisation admin and school admin through branch or section head and class admin or teacher, plus parent as a read-only role on school devices.
Visibility also follows the structure. A person sees the part of the organisation they belong to: a class admin sees their group, a branch head sees the branch, a school admin sees the school. Rules flow down the structure and the most specific level applies last, and the same shape decides who can look at which devices.
A sensible starting setup for a school is location on for the school admin and branch head, on for the warden in a hostel, limited or off for classroom teachers, and off for parents until the school has decided how it wants to share it. A company might give location to the team lead who dispatches field staff and to nobody else.
Because each role setting is a switch, you can change your mind later. If a policy review decides teachers should not see location, you turn the page off for that role and it applies to everyone in it.
Skie provides the controls. The notice to students, parents or staff, and the written policy that says who may look and why, belong to the organisation. See location consent and policy notes. This is general information, not legal advice.
