Important news for Year 11 pupils

Our school deadline for the completion of all sections of the WBQ Individual Project is Friday 3rd April. We have received information today from the WJEC that where the project has not already been completed there is no requirement to complete it and your grade will be based on the work that has already been completed. However, we would like to give you the option of completing your project, if you would still like to, by Friday 3rd April. You can only do this if you were in school during the last week before we closed and you transferred your project to OneDrive so that you can work on it remotely. If you have done this and would like to complete it, please do so and email it to your WBQ teacher via the Hwb email address that they gave you. This will mean that your final grade is based on your completed work rather than being an estimate based on what you have completed so far.

Many thanks. Stay safe and stay sane!

Regards,
Alan Tootill (Headteacher) and Tara Tate (WBQ Coordinator)

Daily Message

Every day a member of our school team will post a video for pupils, parents and guardians. We’ll use this forum for daily updates for our community and as a way of keeping in touch.

There is now a new section on the menu bar above for Remote Learning. Within this is a Google Classroom Introduction Video and the Classroom Codes to help pupils join the correct Google Classes.

Technical Support

If you have problems logging in to HWB or Google Classroom, please ensure you have watched the introduction video linked above.

UPDATE: Please check the following if you’re having problems with classroom codes:

The introduction video outlines a potential problem if using a shared computer or if you have a personal Google Account – the account may switch to another google account, which will not accept the codes.

You can test this by clicking the circle at the top right corner of google classroom, and making sure the account is the pupil’s HWB email account.

If you are still having difficulties or need a password reset, please email help@penyrheol.on.spiceworks.com with your full name and contact telephone number and we will call you back. We are experiencing a high number of requests at the moment but we will get in touch as soon as possible.
