Is there a way to control the student photos they use for their accounts in classroom?

It seems that the photo associated with the google account has nothing to do with the photo associated with classroom. I have students using inappropriate images and no way to remove them. When I go to the admin login, the photo is not associated with the student's account.

Hey Dan,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google help community!

To add, change, or remove a user's photo
  1. Sign in to your Google Admin console.
    Sign in using an administrator account, not your current account
  2. From the Admin console Home page, go to Users.
  3. In the Users list, find the user. If you need help, see Find a user account.
  4. Click the user’s name to open their account page.
  5. (Optional) To add a photo, click Profile photo.
     
  6. (Optional) To change a photo, choose Change photo. 
  7. (Optional) To remove a photo, choose Remove photo. 
  8. To continue adding or changing a photo, find the image file you want on your computer and select it. Changes save automatically.
Note: When you change a user's photo, the photo's visibility setting might change to Visible only to people I can chat with. Learn more about a photo's visibility setting

I hope this helps!

The photo associated with the account is separate from the classroom profile. This does not solve the problem.

Hi Dan,

Can you confirm if the student is signed in with the same Google account?

I am having the same problem and can confirm that the student is signed in using the same email account.
