Major Teams/365 Outage

Hi everybody.

The teams/365 issue that began yesterday is continuing today.

Many people cannot login, if that includes you please do some Joe wicks, use the home learning page on the website to access your grid and the art, PE and Music activities. You could also choose to do your own family fun learning activity or even play a board game.

The council are working to fix this as quickly as possible.

Teams Changes. Lobby

In order to be an even more safe web environment CEC and Dalry Primary are changing some settings around meetings this week.

Some classes may already have been experiencing these changes.

All meetings (class chats, teacher calls, live stories etc) will now be entered via a lobby. Please wait until the teacher admits you.

This is for the purpose of removing opportunities for children to be in the online environement unsupervised.

Look out for the changes in your class.
