Why parents should use the School Spider app:

How do parents access the School Spider app:

Download the free app from Google Play store or Apple App store
Use the drop down and select Archbishop Hutton's Primary School
You can then see recent news, gallery, calendar and blog posts
Next you will need to login to receive any communication related to your child
You have already received your parent login from school so check your texts to find this. When you cannot find your login send Mrs. Robinson a text asking for your login
When you have logged in, you do not need to do anything at all. You will receive an email and an app notification to tell you when you have been sent new information
After that, everything is self-explanatory
Further School Spider app information can be found below along with a YouTube School Spider tutorial for parents

What next?

From 1st June, we will no longer be using the Teacher2Parent text service. Home school contact will be via the School Spider app linked to the school website
Our next step for making the most of our School Spider app, will be setting up online payments for school dinners, trips and music lessons.

SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET UP THE SCHOOL SPIDER APP

ON YOUR PHONE!

Home Learning Update for Parents/Carers:

Following feedback from some parents we want to clarify the following points:

Home learning for each week will be available from Friday - this gives parents time to print off any information their child needs ready to get going first thing on Monday morning
ALL children will need a printed copy of the weekly guide created by the teachers - this tells the child what they should do every day
ALL children should record answers to questions and activities in the exercise book provided. Spare exercise books are available from the school entrance porch during school opening hours
For children who have on-going access to a device for their home learning the only document that should be printed out is the weekly guide. There is no need to print out worksheets for them to refer to as they have this information on screen
For children who are not working from a device, then worksheets will need printing out for them to use
On Monday (11th May) we will send out a text to find out which children/families DO NOT have access either to a device and/or a printer at home. Then we will organise for printed home learning to be available for those families who need this
