Google Classroom is an easy to use tool which lets teachers set work for students. Students can 'turn in' work through Google Classroom too. The video below will give you a guided tour. 

You do not need to install anything - you can just go to classroom.google.com to get started. There is an app version for smartphones and tablets, which you can use if you wish. 

• Download video file

• View on Youtube

You will only be able to see our Google Classrooms if you log in using your academy account. If possible, log out of all other Google accounts before you start.

If you cannot see or join classes, you may need to switch accounts. To do this, find the accounts section and select your academy account. You will find this:

• at the top right on the desktop and tablet versions of Google Classroom

• under the ☰ menu icon on the top left of smartphone versions of Google Classroom

1. Click on the 'Classwork' tab - it's at the top on a desktop and at the bottom on mobile. You will see a list of assignments.

2. Open the assignment. On the desktop version, it shows a preview - click 'View assignment' for the full instructions. 

3. You will see instructions, along with any helpful  links or documents the teacher has given you.

4. To 'turn in' an assignment - look for the 'Your work' box. This is on the right hand side on the desktop. On the mobile version, you need to swipe up from the bottom to open it fully. 

   • If the teacher has given you a worksheet to fill in, this is in the 'You work' section and will have your name on.

   • You can click "+ Add or create" to start a new document or upload your work - this could be a photo of your work, a  slideshow or word document etc. 

   • When you are ready, click the blue button to "Turn in" your work.
