Getting yourself ready:
  1. Use a Chromebook or Laptop 
  2. Use the Google Chrome browser - this happens automatically when you use a Chromebook. If using a laptop - you must open it from your Desktop (or you can download it from here). This is important to get full functionality of your Google Account.

  4. ​​​If you are not Logged into Google Chrome with your school email - follow these instructions and Sync and Link the data when asked.

    By signing into Chrome, you can take your bookmarks, history, and settings to all your devices. Anything you update on one device instantly updates everywhere else, and your Chrome stuff is safe in case anything happens to your computer as it is in the Cloud.

Student BYOD and Privacy
Question: Does GBHS spy on students personal devices?
Answer:   All your internet use whilst at school is filtered and recorded. This information can be looked at if there is reason to believe you are using the internet inappropriately.
  • Any email you send or receive, using your school address, is logged and could be examined if necessary.
  • We cannot examine the hard drive contents of your personal device.  We have no ability to monitor, filter or control your personal device in any way when you are outside the school.​  We can collect and examine your personal device if a serious breach of our internet policy has been committed.
Microsoft Office 365 for Students - if you wish to have a copy of this installed on your own device for free please go to this site and register with your school email address. Note: You must be over 13 years of age.  Please only install this if you think you need Microsoft Office on your own device.  It is quite a big programme so it will take up room on your computer, and it will stop working when you leave our school.  Here is a PDF with all the information.

We recommend using Google Workspace for Education - but Office 365 is available for students who would like it.
Leaving School?
Use Google Takeout to transfer your School Google files from Gmail, Drive etc to your own Personal Gmail account. 

Note: You cannot take your GBH school email address with you - it will be suspended when you leave... So don't sign up to things using your school email address if it is for personal use - use your own gmail account, not your school one.
