Hi Nick,

Yes we are having this issue as well. There's nothing I can see in Jamf's restrictions that can override this. I contacted support yesterday and they didn't offer much. Suggested I should contact Apple myself. 

Thanks

This is probably something you will need to submit feedback to apple over. Unless Apple added the configuration and JAMF has yet to adopt it, apple will demand feedback and complain that you should be doing their testing for them in beta. 

We should be testing in beta, but not to the extent apple wants.

I contacted jamf on this too and they said this

Thanks for contacting Support! My name is Pa Kou and I will be assisting with this case. Unfortunately we do not have the ability to restrict Focus at the moment. You can view all MDM Restrictions available below: https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/restrictions-for-supervised-devices-dep6b5ae23e9/web Let me know if there are questions!

Same issue here. 

Just commenting to receive notifications if anybody finds a solution.

Me too. No solution. Waiting.

Same thing here too. We have wallpaper configured in the student profile so when that reinstalls it changes back.

same issue here, has anyone found a workaround yet? 

I also asked Apple the question on my side... but refers me to JAMF ;-)

Same here, students changing wallpapers using focus.

I'm having this issue as well. Hoping for a fix soon.

The same issue at our school. But also: With a change in focus our students can also place widgets on their lock screen. When the teacher locks the iPad (with the Classroom app) the students can simply tap the widget to unlock the screen. Very strange.

We are having the same issue.  Just commenting to see the notification if anyone finds a solution.

Had a few schools raise this with us too (Jamf Pro).

Commenting for notifications.

It seems that with iPadOS 17.5.1 the Problem is solved.
With at least iPadOS 17.5.1 the Wallpaper isnt changed on Focus activation.
