All devices in Securly MDM belong to a device group. Devices can only belong to a single group. A group represents any logical collection of devices within a school location, such as a group of classroom devices, a device cart full of devices, or a grade-level group such as “GCHS 10th grade iPads.”
In 1-to-1 implementations, a device group is often created for each grade level (later, teachers can add specific student devices to classes). In some cases, there might be multiple groups for a grade level if different groups of students are to have different restrictions on a normal basis. For example, you might have "9th Grade Students" and "9th Grade Honors Students" as groups.
