Today all children were issued with their login details for Glow and Microsoft Teams. Microsoft Teams is linked to your child’s Glow account. You can also download Microsoft Teams from the App Store if you wish. When you first log on you will be asked to change the password indicated on the card – this is to make your child’s Glow and Microsoft Teams account secure.

Below are links to instructional videos that will help you access your child’s Glow Launch Pad and Microsoft Class Team.

As a local authority North Lanarkshire Council are taking cash out of the process of paying for school meals/tuckshop/snacks.

For you to use the online payment service, you need to register with MyAccount, the simple and secure sign-in service for accessing online public services in Scotland. It provides people living in Scotland with the ability to set up an online account and use it – using a single user name and password to access a growing range of online public services.
