Your child’s teacher can use Meet to set up a virtual conference. Meet is also a great solution for virtual learning, where educators can hold classes and communicate with your child’s class when they’re not able to be with them physically. Meet also has educator controls including the ability to mute and remove participants, to help manage the class.
To keep Virtual Learning safe and secure, teachers at NPSC will be using Google Meet integrated and accessed through Google Classrooms. This allows NPSC to control Google Meets, preventing students from entering without a teacher being present.
