Apple Classroom and color of the classes

Hello. I've had one of our tech staff, of which I am part of, ask me if there is a way to change the color of the individual classes. Right now some of our Specials teachers have maybe 10 to 12 classes and the only way to tell them apart is looking at the name. It would be nice if you could color code them. She said she could do it with an unmanaged device. Any help would be appreciated. Here is an image of the default and then 1 with what they would like. A very rough sample.

At present you can only change the colour on teacher created classes, not admin created classes. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/classroom/cla540cff601/3.2/ipados/13.0

This was a feature before the update in August. We previously had our classes set in Jamf and we were able to change the colours. Since the update and addition of the classes set up through Apple School Manager feature those colours have disappeared to the generic Orange.

I’d recommend, if not already, getting signed up to Appleseed and/ or let Apple know your feedback.
