Class Dojo

We are keen for all of our families and pupils to connect with us on Class Dojo - our online platform to share learning and activities from home and news and messages from school.

 

Class Dojo is an online platform where our school can share news, announcements and home learning from teachers and where families can respond to our news, message teachers directly and share photos, text, videos or drawings with their teacher showing what they have been getting up to at home.

 

You are able to send messages to your child’s teacher with learning related questions or comments. 

 

 How to access Class Dojo

You can access Class Dojo on the web at home.classdojo.com or by downloading the ClassDojo app from the Apple or Google Play store.

 

Once you are logged in, you will be sent a request from Class Dojo to set up your child’s login so that they can upload learning and photos.

 

Class Dojo is FREE. Please do not sign up to any paid subscriptions.

 

 By setting up your account and logging in, parents and children will be agreeing to our USER AGREEMENT below.
