GoGuardian Teacher helps teachers manage classroom devices, monitor student browsing, and support focused, differentiated learning. Teachers can view browsing activity and control screens remotely, block or allow websites, manage tabs, send class-wide announcements, and use two-way chat. Scenes and Custom Groups let teachers apply different filters or resources to selected student groups. The product also provides access to Google Classroom assignments, quizzes, and other classwork, with selected items available to open on student devices. Roster synchronization is listed for Google Classroom, Clever, and ClassLink. GoGuardian Teacher is intended for teachers and K–12 schools or districts managing classroom devices, with support for ChromeOS, Windows, macOS, and iPadOS. School-managed iOS devices must run iOS 15 or later and use Jamf Pro, Jamf School, Meraki, or Intune for deployment. Teacher-initiated filtering overrides require the school or district to have both GoGuardian Teacher and GoGuardian Admin. Pricing is available on request. GoGuardian describes encryption in transit and restricted access to student information; it says schools and districts control student personal information and can request its deletion.
