Microsoft Teams Guidance for Parents
Home Learning During Closure
We have provided your child with GLOW, Bug Club and Sumdog logins in order to access these online learning platforms during closure.
Teachers have set up TEAMS in GLOW for their class where they will be uploading work for your child to do at home. Your child will also be able to chat to their teacher and their class through teams.
A quick guide to GLOW TEAMS has been made for you:

A list of suitable websites will follow to enable you to supplement learning from home. We will endeavour to update this on a weekly basis.
Scottish Government Announcement – School Closures
I am aware that many of you will have heard the First Ministers announcement earlier today and subsequent news reports regarding school closures.
We are awaiting further guidance from East Ayrshire Council regarding how this announcement will impact on us at Gargieston. We will be in contact with all parents regarding any planned closures and plans for home learning as soon as possible.
We appreciate you patience and support in the meantime.
Extra Curricular Clubs
Please note that all extra curricular clubs are now cancelled for the foreseeable future. This includes all sports clubs held before and after school, iCycle, homework club and our PEF support groups.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Sumdog
All pupils in school should now have a username and password in order to access Sumdog either in school or at home. Here is a guide for Parents on what Sumdog is and how to access at home. (Please use google chrome.)
