How to Access Remote Learning

All work for students in years 7 – 11 will be shared on the student gateway. The easiest way to get to the gateway is through the school website. To access this work you will need a connection to the internet and a PC, laptop or tablet (such as an Ipad).  

If you do not have access to any of these devices please contact the school on 01202 486536 or email us at office@thegrangeschol.com.

Before you access the student gateway, you need to know:

  • Your school email address. This is the 5-digit number that you use to access the computers at school, followed by @thegrangeschool.com
  • The password that you usually use to access the computers at school.

If you can’t remember these details, please contact us using the details above.

Please follow the instructions below to access the school gateway via the school website.

The work in the folders will be similar to the work being completed in school. Please look at the work and begin with the topic that you remember working on in class or begin with work in the correctly dated folder. If you have your exercise book at home, please complete your work in that. If you don’t, please use any paper that you have at home or type your work, save it and print when you return to school.

For PSHE lessons there are 40 different well-being activities to choose from.
