Restric option to make a passcode.. I Don't want ability for passcode to be made

Hi,

I have two Ipads in a weight room at my school. Recently, one of the kids decided to put a passcode on them (I had left them with no passcode so they can always be used)

Luckily they came forward after a few nights..

I'm wondering if there is anyway to eliminate this from happening again. Restrictions doesn't seem like it has an option to restrict passcode.

Any one have any ideas. I don't want a passcode EVER on them...

Thanks!

I can see where you're coming from but you're looking for a self-contradiction. Just think - there would have to be a setting that says "No passwords allowed" but the only way that that setting could be permanent would be if it was itself protected by a password! In any event, I'm sorry but you can not permanently lock out the existence of passwords.

Yes... I wouldn't mind that!!! As long as I could make a password that would make it so a password couldn't be made.... A true contradiction indeed. !!!

Well, there's more than one way to skin a cat...

I'm hoping that you have an Apple ID but, before I get there, it's first important that you sync the iPad to a computer's iTunes at least once.

Then, enable the "Find my iPad" function using your Apple ID. When, in the future, someone plays around and sets a password, you go into iCloud and remotely erase the iPad. After the erasure, connect the iPad to the computer and sync again to get it back to where it was.
