I use the site news at the frontpage as a newsletter. I would like only to have one user to manage this section.

The problem i have is that now all my students and teachers can do this and i cant control this

You need to ensure that your teachers and students have NOT been entered via site admin>users>permissions>assign system roles as this gives them access to everywhere on your site. Take them out of there -just put them in the courses where they will be working -and then the one person you want to edit the site news, put them in the role via site admin>front Page>front page roles.

Juan,

In addition to not assigning system roles except to 'admin', and not assigning Front Page roles except to your news maintainer, as Mary mentions, you may also need to check...
Administraion->Users->Permissions->User Policies, and make sure that 'Default role for all users' is Authenticated User, NOT student.

Regards,
John

Make sure (as well as what John says re authenticated user for the whole Moodle) that in your course the default role in course settings is set to student and not teacher. What you are describing sounds as if the student has editing teacher rights across the course.
