Online Learning Support

The Academy now uses a variety of online sites to support you as a parent and your child in their learning. Each student has been issued an email address which enables communication between them and their teachers. In due course your child will be given logon details and passwords for the other online learning systems we use. Some, such as ClassCharts, can also be accessed by parents but others, such as Doddle, can only be accessed by the student.There is space in the student planners for all these important details to be kept. Please encourage your child to share with you their online learning experience.

Computers can be accessed in both libraries during breakfast club, homework club, and at selected break and lunchtimes.

Parents and students are given individual logins to www.classcharts.com. Accessed either online or via the app, here you and your child will be able to see a clear breakdown of their behaviour, Attitude to Learning (A2L) points and homework as it is set. It is also directly linked to our rewards system, whereby students are awarded A2L points for reasons such as good work, effort and acts of kindness, as well as weekly rewards for good attendance and wearing correct uniform. Students will then have the opportunity to go onto the Classcharts website to exchang their points for a wide variety of goods, from pencils to Prom tickets.  If you have not received your login details, or are having problems logging in, please contact the Academy.

Every student is given an Academy Google email account which they can use for school related correspondence. Often, important information will be sent to your child’s account regarding meetings, lessons, clubs and notices.The email address format is always their computer username. This is the year in which the student started, followed by their form, followed by their first initial and then the first two initials of their surnames. For example if Joe Bloggs started in 2017 it would be:2017 – g1- j – bl which would look like 2017g1jbl@paignotnacademy.org The password to access their email account is the same password used when logging on to the Academy’s computers.These details should be stored in their planner.
