I’m trying to configure an Android policy that disables the notification bar on tablets. Is that possible?

Hi Mike!
It is indeed possible to disable the notification bar via policy, but this feature is specific to Samsung Knox devices alone. Head onto Android Settings -> Advanced Restrictions -> Display Settings -> Enable Modify System Bars -> Enable Hide Status Bar.
If the devices are in Kiosk mode, you could disable the status bar from Kiosk Settings -> Peripheral Settings -> Enable status bar under Display settings.
For more details on different system configurations, refer to the Android Restrictions document.

Cheers!
