Content Type
Content Type is a feature that allows schools to restrict access to selected content to specific groups of users, ensuring that users only see and manage content relevant to their role within the school community.

Content Types control access to content at two different levels, allowing schools to manage both who can view content and who can edit content. By using Content Types, schools can display targeted, user-specific information and personalize the experience for each member of their community.
