What is Google Classroom?

Google Classroom is an excellent resource to assist with home learning. Our teachers
will share resources including videos, PPTs, pre-recorded lessons and homework
through Google Classrooms. Students can use it to access work sent by the teacher.
Parents can use some of the features of Google Classroom to help engage with and
support their child in their home study. It is a virtual learning system that can be
accessed from any device connected to the internet - laptops, desktop computers,
Chromebooks, tablets or mobile phones.

Trouble accessing classes
I deleted my class invitation

If you lose your class invitation before you add yourself to a class, ask your teacher to resend the class
invitation or send an email to your school coordinator.

I unenrolled from a class and want to re-enroll

If you accidentally unenrolled from a class, ask your teacher to resend you a class code or invitation.

Trouble posting comments


I can't post a comment
Your teacher turned off posting for that class. Ask your teacher for more information.

Turn notifications on or off


You can set up a Classroom to get notifications, like due-date reminders or invitations to join a class.

By default, you get email notifications for various activities, such as when someone comments on your post or
your teacher returns work. You can change these notification settings at any time.

Students and teachers can:

● Turn all notifications on or off.


● Choose which notifications you get.
● Turn notifications for a class on or off.
