The key benefits of Google Classrooms are:

• Work is posted and handed in on the same website, removing the need to send an email in with attachments.
• Tasks can be presented in a more user friendly way, with attachments and Youtube videos next to the task.
• We can keep tasks on Google Classrooms for a longer period than on the website.
• Feedback can be attached directly to the piece of work.
• Google Classrooms has a shared ‘stream’ where staff can post messages and stay in touch, and children can respond.
• Google Meet is built in to the service so class video meetings can be arranged much more easily and will not require codes and passwords emailed out.
• No need for printing resources, or reduced need.

A few common issues and questions:

• How do I login? classroom.google.com on a computer or use the app.
• Logged in, but not showing any classes? Switch your Google account to ensure it’s the school one, not your personal one.
• Need help? Watch an introduction and help videos above.  
• How do I give in the work? No need to email it, just click on ‘hand-in‘ or ‘submit’. The staff will then take a look, and then return it.
• Can I still do work on paper and submit it? Yes, this can be done through Google Classroom. Watch the help videos to find out more.
