Any student who is unable to attend school should use the following information to access their lessons from home.
Home Learning Overview
How to Access Home Learning
*Student emails are: "username"@tggsacademy.org
We encourage students to communicate to staff via Teams, but they can also access their Outlook emails through Office 365 and use this to contact their Form Teacher, Head of Year or Subject Teachers. It is important students only contact staff using their school email address.
Should a student experience any issues with the tasks set via Teams, or wish to complete some additional work, they may also like to access the Oak National Academy, which is the government’s approved remote learning site: www.thenational.academy. Or, the well-established BBC Bitesize website: www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize. Many of our teachers will also have shared subject-specific websites with their classes to supplement learning.
Safe and appropriate use of Teams
At all times, students must adhere to the school’s ICT Acceptable Usage Policy.
Forgotten Password
To reset a student password, a parent/carer will need to email ict@tggsacademy.org and include their child’s full name, form group, date of birth and username. Our ICT team will respond to password requests Monday to Friday between 9.00am and 3.30pm.
Further guidance
If you have any further questions or queries about your child’s online learning, please refer to our Remote Education Guidance for Parents and Carers.
