Accessing MSTeams through XBox
If you have an XBox at home, you can use it to access MSTeams for online lessons. This may help if you have limited devices at home. Please see the tutorial for how to do this, and thank you to Mrs Waters for creating the tutorial.
Connection issues
If you are struggling with connection issues, and you or family members have unlimited data on their phones you will be able to hotspot to allow wifi on their laptop/computer. Connection speed is very good. To do this go to settings and enable hotspot.
Support for disadvantaged children
We endeavour to assist families that are struggling with access. Please contact us to let us know if you think this may apply to you.
