Online Resources

Young people should logon to Microsoft TEAMS (via their iPad) to access online learning & teaching resources provided by the school. Each pupil should have been added to a Microsoft Team for each of their classes at the start of the school year. These TEAMS had resources added that pupils can access throughout the school year to complete learning and teaching at home as well as in the classroom.

S1- 6 Pupils

Your teacher will try to signpost you to the work that can be complete for any subjects that you have on the day. This will be done through a post/announcement on each subject TEAM.

Pupils can look at any of their subject TEAMS pages, and complete work that they may have missed or want to practice further.

Senior Phase pupils may also decide to complete course notes, tasks or practice past paper questions. If you have any work to catch up on, then this would be the ideal time to do so.

Other resources (all pupils)

Further websites and resources can be found on our school website for each subject area in the school – Supporting Your Learner | Craigroyston Community High School (wordpress.com)

At Craigroyston Community High School we want to support learners both in and out of the classroom. This section will provide a huge range of resources for both pupils and parents to access and assist with learning from home.

All pupils will have been added to a Microsoft Team for all of their subjects and their teachers will be adding subject specific work to these Teams for pupils to access from home. Please see the videos and PowerPoint below help with accessing Microsoft Teams.
