We’re excited to introduce the ability to specify Context-Aware Access policies to control access to Google Classroom. This update allows Google Workspace administrators to set granular security parameters for Classroom access directly from the Admin console. For example, an organization can create a policy that permits users to access Classroom only if they are connecting from a specific geographic region.Expanding Context-Aware Access to Classroom gives administrators deeper control over their digital learning environments. Security policies can be tailored based on specific user attributes, including user identity, geographic location, device security status, and IP address.By incorporating Classroom into broader organizational security frameworks, administrators can seamlessly manage access permissions across their Workspace apps. This ensures that sensitive school and student data remains protected, while making certain that only authorized users can connect to Classroom under secure, approved conditions.Getting startedAdmins: Context-Aware Access for Google Classroom can be configured at the organizational unit (OU) or group level. Visit the Help Center to learn more about Context-Aware Access, creating Context-Aware Access levels, and assigning Context-Aware Access levels to apps.End users: If enabled by your admin, you can access Google Classroom when authenticating using your Google sign-in. If your organization’s Context-Aware Access settings are not set to allow access, you may see a message letting you know that you cannot use Google sign-in to authenticate with Classroom, or you may see remediation messages which will provide some options on how to unblock Classroom.Rollout paceRapid Release and Scheduled Release domains: Available nowAvailabilityEducation: Education Standard and PlusResourcesGoogle Workspace Admin Help: Assign Context-Aware Access levels to appsGoogle Workspace Admin Help: Protect your business with Context-Aware Access
