School owned devices issued to students was a demolition derby for us. Boys. Decile 10 boys. The state of their now byod macbooks is often unbelievably bad.. byod ipads much the same.. i saw one the other day that was unbroken but bent! Maybe 4mm deflection! Amazing....

I am thinking tho that while they will be domain connected to take advantaged of licenced software (as they are school owned) I may make them a local administrator, to mimic BYOD. Sure they can disconnect from the domain, uninstall required software but I think this could be a good test. I am not expecting too much damage but its the unknown unless someone on here has tried with school owned devices. BYOD is still our long term but this will test the water.
I don't understand this thinking at all ,if you want to provide school owned laptops then domain joined makes complete sense ,just like desktops but they are not BYOD and should never have user admin rights. Why would they even need that access.?
the golden rule of BYOD is that the machines are completely isolated from the network, vlanned with internet access only, some schools will allow print but most not,file access can be done through webdav but with cloud it's not really needed.
You seem to be talking about two different things with teacher moderation and students transferring, not sure what that has to do with BYOD,
personally I think you are just asking for virus and hacking hell and making yourself vulnerable if allowing students to have a domain joined machine with admin rights
As local admin it is far easier to privilage escalate, make sure you never log on with higher domain credentials as these are cached and can be rainbow tabled out comparatively easily by the user. Don't use a standard local admin password across devices either.
Depends on your users but some of these tools are quite easy to use. They can also get access to static wpa wireless keys if they are still a thing there and you want them kept secret.

For byod-equivalent devices provided by my school, we don't domain join and do give local admin credentials.
Likely the way it will happen because as more services are hosted and less on the domain, connecting to the domain will gain no advantage.
Are these byod equivalent devices also taken home by students, ie are they issued to them permanently?
We reorganize each time we get more waps for best coverage with one per byod class and the best we can do for the coverage in other areas, just got an influx of waps though so almost one per classroom. Plus hall, staffroom, library etc.
