How does IT at Pool Academy work?
We use Google systems as our main platform for email, document creation and storage.
You will receive your email address & password when you start, it is unqiue to you, please keep it safe.
Additionally the different subjects will use software to support your learning, these can be accessed on the Student Links page
What devices do I use to access these systems?
Most systems we use are browser based, meaning you can access them from any device using Chrome or Edge. In school this might be a computer, iPad or Chromebook.
At home you can use any device you have including a mobile phone.
Many of our systems require you to 'Log in with Google'
If you are doing this on your own device where you are already logged in to Google, it will try and log you in with your own personal account.
We recommend either adding the school account to your device so you can switch to it or log in with Incognito/Private mode using your school Google account
