General settings
The academy’s name as everyone sees it, and the time zone its days are counted in.
Owners and admins can change these. So can anyone whose role, under My Academy, has Settings set to Manage, and who works in all of the academy’s locations. Anyone else who can open the page, such as someone with Settings set to View, sees Save Settings greyed out.
