Remote Learning

As every child starts at Aston Rowant Primary School, we provide them with a Microsoft 365 Teams account.  This means that they are able to access a range of resources from Microsoft including Word, Excel and Powerpoint to help with their learning throughout their time here.  In addition, we use this platform for home (and remote if necessary) learning.

To activate this, follow these simple steps:

1. Google Microsoft 365 login
2. Login with their user name 
3. And their password 
4. Once in they will see a list of icons.Go to the Teams icon 
5. They will then see class Teams page

Using Teams allows pupils access to Microsoft Outlook (emails). To increase our children's safety while they are online, we have blocked students from sending and receiving emails. Therefore students cannot use this account to receive confirmation codes to sign up for other websites. However, as a parent, you should be aware that students have the ability to email other school email addresses. This however is not allowed and children need to be aware that new email address we have set up for your child is solely intended for them to use only to remotely access their new class Team account.

The school has access to all students' accounts and can block students' access to Microsoft and Teams if they do not act appropriately.  With that in mind, please could you talk to you child about the importance of not using their new email address for any other use apart from logging onto Teams. In addition, it is vital that they do not share their username or password with others. This way we can ensure that we are doing our utmost to keep our children safe online. Please note, as a school we will not be able to tell if your child has used their email to access anything other than Teams, so it will be parents' responsibility to ensure that this does not happen.

For more information you can view our E safety policy  and if you have any questions, please let the School Office know.
