Before changing control levels, we recommend that you consider the impact of any changes on your parent community and proactively communicate any changes to them to avoid potential confusion. For example, a parent may have created an allow list for his child when you had a "Restricted" control level. Changing to the "No Control" level would remove this option from the parent's UI.

Parental Controls
As a school administrator, you have complete control over the level of access that parents can have when using the parent settings for their child from the Settings menu. You can select from four different control levels and modify them as your school policies or requirements evolve.
The four control levels are:
- No Control - Parents won't be able to manage their child's settings.
- Restricted Control - Parents can only make the policy more strict.
- Full Control - Parents have complete control of their child's settings.
- Custom Control - Parents can only control the settings you select.
Changing Control Levels
- Go to Settings > Parental control. You will see four options. The existing control level will appear highlighted.

- To change the control level, select the box that best suits your needs.
- A pop-up will be launched. Select both the checkboxes in the pop-up and click Yes, I understand to apply the control level.

- Selecting ‘Custom control’ will open a sidebar where you customize which settings parents have control over.

Click on the lock icon to either lock or unlock individual categories and settings.

Finally, click the save button at the bottom.
The changed control level will be applied to the parent and modified settings displayed to him when he logs in to the parent portal. If you change to ‘No Control’ the parent will not be displayed in the ‘Settings’ tab in his parent portal UI.

All control levels (except No Control) become available to the parent only after they click ‘Manage my settings’ upon logging in to the Securly Home app. If the parent does not click ‘Manage my settings’ they won't be able to manage their child’s settings.
