Hide SharePoint Tab from students

Question

Hello everyone,

I was just wondering if there is a way we can hide certain tabs in a Team, so that they're only visible to us, teachers.

Specifically, I want to create a tab from which I can access all students' work (from SharePoint), but I don't want everyone in the Team to be able to access their classmates' work...

Is there a way I could hide the tab from the students?

Thank you so much in advance,

Georgia

Hi Georgia1705,

Thanks for choosing Microsoft Community.

Based on your description, I know your requirement. And then I did a test and some research for you. Through these, it seems that Tabs are shown for all users of the Teams, so we cannot hide these for some users. If you want to do this, you can try to use private channels in Teams and add tabs in those and invite certain users there.

So sorry to bring you inconvenience. I know sometimes it is really inconvenient for us to use this if Teams does not have this feature so I can understand your mood. And I think your idea is very constructive. We sincerely suggest you use Feedback to provide your precious advice via Microsoft Teams · Community. Microsoft will update their products based on customers’ suggestions. I believe your suggestion will help many other people in the future. Your understanding is highly appreciated.

Thanks for your precious time. Have a nice day.
