Student Access

With the spread of the Covid-19 virus, several schools have already closed or are thinking about how to continue distant learning.

It is therefore a good time to remind you that, with your subscription, your classes can have access to this site. Some schools that have had to close are already making active use of this facility which enables students to continue learning from home.

Students have access to all of the History ATL pages; these pages are specifically designed to allow students to work on their own. Each page will take students through a topic via content, videos and ATL.  In addition you can give them access to the video and essay planning pages or to the marked exemplars. There are also online quiz pages which the students can access such as this one: Move to Global War: Interactive quizzes.

Getting started

The easiest way to get started is to click on the new button on the homepage called 'Distance learning in difficult times'.

This link will take you to a guide for setting up and using student access tools.
