Why we have chosen to use Google Classroom and the key benefits: 

  • Work is posted and handed in on Google Classroom, removing the need to send an email in with attachments.
  • Tasks can be presented in a more user friendly way, with attachments and Youtube videos next to the task.
  • We can keep tasks on Google Classrooms for a longer period.
  • Feedback can be attached directly to the piece of work.
  • Google Classrooms has a shared ‘stream’ where staff can post messages and stay in touch, and children can respond.
  • Google Meet is built in to the service so class video meetings can be arranged much more easily and will not require codes and passwords emailed out.
  • No need for printing resources, or reduced need.
