The link will be open until 5pm on Thursday 31st March. This will allow us to build the Teams for each session and add the pupils before the start of the programme. There will be a late sign-up form that will go live on the Friday (1st April) evening and this will be tweeted out by the @NLDigitalSchool Twitter account.
