Beedle is downloadable from the Microsoft Teams App Store. Once installed to Teams, the system admin needs to approve permissions to selected modules, after which all teachers in that school can use Beedle.

The class teacher adds the parents as the students guardian from within Beedle in Microsoft Teams, entering their names and email address. The Parents then receive an email to download and create a login to the Beedle Parent app. 

Once logged in, they can view and mark attendance for their child, see all pending, due and returned assignments, view news and announcements and chat directly with the child’s teacher.

No, the parents or guardians only need the iOS / Android Beedle Parent App. There, they create a log in and once logged in, they can view and set attendance, get an overview of assignments, news and announcements and chat directly with their children’s teacher.

All files must be saved within a plan. To create or upload a new file, you must first select the plan you wish to save the file to. If this plan already has files saved within it, click on ‘Add another file’. If the plan has no files already, click on ‘Add first file’. You will then have the option to add a new file (Word, Excel or PowerPoint) or to upload an existing document.

Once a plan is created, click the add to calendar icon which is on the top right-hand side of the tab. A dialog will appear allowing you to choose the date and time. You have the option to choose a specific time or the whole day. If you wish to link to a period of time, select the first date and then the last date of this period. If you now select the calendar view, you will see an overview of all linked plans for your Team/channel. If you want to see an overview of your linked plans, for all Teams/channels, select to ‘show all’ Teams. From here, you can select and deselect which linked plans you wish to view on the calendar.

Yes. On the top right of the preview pane and to the right of the ‘add to calendar’ option, you have two layout options. Selecting the two-column icon will allow you to see all files in one list next to the preview pane. You can change back to the original layout by selecting the one-column view icon.

Select the ellipsis to the right of the plan name, click the option to ‘delete’. Please note, this will delete all sub plans and all associated files, meaning that all documents linked to your plan will be lost if not stored in another place.

Select the plan which contains the file to be deleted. The files are listed with an ellipsis to the right of the file name. Click on the ellipsis and select the option to delete. The files you delete are not stored in your planning SharePoint anymore. If you want to keep them, you need to store them in another place.

In the unlikely event of you wanting to remove the Beedle planning tab, you are given the option to delete the plans and everything connected to it. All data will be removed from your SharePoint. You can also decide to not delete the data which means when you add the tab again, all data will still be there.

Within the planning tab the files can only be viewed by teachers who are members or owners of the Team. Pupils only have access to material which the teacher has directly shared with them, from within Beedle.

All your files are stored within your SharePoint site. We securely store other data (plans, calendar entries) within EU/EEA and the service runs in Microsoft‘s Azure Cloud Service (North Europe), which is located in Ireland. 

All user input data is kept for a maximum of 1 year from its creation. Once you decide to delete the plan with its linked documents, they will also be deleted in our database.
