Configure education themes for Windows 11

Starting in Windows 11, version 22H2, you can deploy education themes to your devices. The education themes are designed for students using devices in a school.

Themes allow the end user to quickly configure the look and feel of the device, with preset wallpaper, accent color, and other settings. Students can choose their own themes, making it feel the device is their own. When students feel more ownership over their device, they tend to take better care of it.

Enable education themes

Education themes aren't enabled by default. The following instructions describe how to configure your devices using either Microsoft Intune or a provisioning package (PPKG).

[!INCLUDE intune-settings-catalog-1]

Category Setting name Value
Education Enable Edu Themes Enabled

[!INCLUDE intune-settings-catalog-2]

Alternatively, you can configure devices using a custom policy with the following settings:

Setting
OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Education/EnableEduThemes
Data type: int
Value: 1

To configure devices using a provisioning package, create a provisioning package using Windows Configuration Designer (WCD), with the following settings:

Setting
  • Path: Education/EnableEduThemes
  • Value: True
    		•

    Follow the steps in Apply a provisioning package to apply the package that you created.

    How to use the education themes

    Once the education themes are enabled, the device downloads them as soon as a user signs in to the device.

    To change the theme, select Settings > Personalization > Themes > Select a theme
