Google Classroom

New Year 7 Students

When students start school in September they will automatically be enrolled in Google Classroom. Students will be shown in their ICT lessons how to use the system and how to access it from home.

Parents of new starters to the school

Your child will have an 'opt in Google Form to complete', whereby they place in your email address and give their permission for you to see a summary of their learning and progress. You will receive an email from Google inviting you to join your child’s classes. This will be sent to the primary email address we have for you. Please check your junk/spam folder if you have not seen this. We will text you in September for new year 7 students when the invite is being sent.

Please accept the invite

You should now start to receive daily or weekly emails, (your preference), which Google automatically sends.

The email will give you a summary of homework set, materials now available, discussions and extra resources for your child. It will also highlight the work that was handed in late or is yet to be completed (assuming your child remembered to ‘mark as done’ for each piece completed).

Please be aware that as a parent you will not be able to see your child’s classes via the app, you will only receive an email. If you would like to see more, please ask your child to show you it once they have logged in.
