How to join a Teams meeting
All students must sign into Microsoft Teams with their school Office365 email account NOT their personal email account. Teachers will not let you into the meeting unless you do.
Before you join make sure your device is ready by following this guide:
1) Install the Teams App for Windows, Apple iOS App or Android Play store on your device. QR Codes at the bottom of the page can be scanned.
On a school PC/laptop you can only access Teams in the web browser as you can't install the app. In this case, select the Continue on this browser option on a school PC.
2) Sign into Firefly with your Office 365 email account. Help guide for desktop or firefly app.
3) Open the meeting link in your Firefly task. On desktop select open in the App or in Browser if the App is not installed:
4) If you are using the browser option you should be automatically signed into your Teams account. Make sure you allow your browser access to your web camera and mic:
5) Join the meeting and you will go into the lobby. Your teacher will let you in as long as you have signed into your Teams with your school email account. You will not be allowed in as a guest (not signed in).
6) If using the Mobile/Tablet App you need to select Sign in and join.
7) Only log in with your school email account. Do not use a personal hotmail/outlook/live account to sign in to Teams.
To check which email account you are logged in with on the app, tap the three lines at the top left:
Your email will be shown below your name. If this is your personal email address, sign out by going to Settings -> Sign out. Sign back in with your school email account.
9) If your teacher has muted all of the microphones, you can ask to speak by raising your hand.
