Account Details

We have compiled the below guide to help you access the websites and services which your teachers may ask you to use or keep in touch with you by, particularly at the moment with needing to work at home.

Where we have put <username> this is the username that you use to log on on to the computer at school with.

Microsoft Teams

Update: After the Microsoft migration in December 2025, some users have experienced issues with their devices still trying to login to the old, pre-migration account. We have made instructions which can help you resolve this. You can then login to your Teams again as normal.
