Moving to a virtual classroom
As schools move to a remote learning environment, Teams can provide an online classroom that brings together virtual face-to-face connections, assignments, files, and conversations into a single platform accessible on a mobile device, tablet, PC, or browser.
To help make this process as simple as possible, we have created a best practices guide for school leaders and IT to get up and running quickly, so their students and staff to begin communicating remotely.

| Students should be on audio only not video. Any student who is on video must switch it off. | Students should stay muted during the course of the lesson |
Students must wait for the teacher to give permission to speak and can raise a virtual hand to ask a question |

|
Any interactions must be respectful and polite. Any talking should be between teacher and student. |
Interactions through Teams should be of the same standard as they would be in a school classroom. The normal school behaviour policy applies. | Teachers reserve the right to remove a student from the live lesson should any problems arise. |
