31st March 2020 - Google Hangouts Update
Dear All,
I hope everyone is well!
Today seemed to be filled with Hangout issues which obviously is not ideal! What we understand from today is that the security settings for Hangouts have changed and it appears now that only someone who owns the event can add people to a hangout (which is a good thing). What this means, however, is if I created your Hangout link (this should only apply to FS/KS1) then you must make a new one.
PLEASE NOTE: If you did not have any issues with your hangout today with people not being able to join then you do not need to change anything and you can ignore the information below.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?
From tomorrow everyone who hosts a hangout with a class (teachers and assistants) MUST make a new hangout link for the chat with their class. You do not need a new link each day but you all need to create one for your own hangouts.
To do this:
Create an event on your calendar (the date and time is not important)
Add video conferencing to the event
Copy the video conferencing link and paste it to the daily planning document and into the Hangout schedule
Save the event
That's it!
If you have any questions please ask.
