G Suite for Education
At St. Killian’s we use G Suite for Education which is operated by Google, and we are
seeking your permission to provide and manage a G Suite for Education account for your
child.
Students would use their G Suite for Education account for the following:
• Login to their own account on laptops: each child will have their own G Suite
credentials (username and password) to allow them to access their own personal
account on our school laptops. This allows them to save their work to the cloud after
each lesson making it accessible to them from other devices within the school. With
these credentials they can also use other Google tools such as Google docs, email,
calendar,
• Access Google Classroom: Google Classroom is a virtual learning space. This
learning space would be led by the class teacher. Google Classroom allows the
teacher to set activities for the class to work on either individually or collaboratively
both in school and at home during Home Learning.
• Learn 21st century digital citizenship skills: our aim is to provide students with
the skills required to develop good digital citizenship.
Below you will find information provided by Google. It provides answers to common
questions about what Google can and can’t do with your child’s personal information.
Please read it carefully, let us know of any questions. If you don’t provide your
consent, we will not create a G Suite for Education account for your child. Students who
cannot use Google services will not be able to have their own profile on our laptops and
therefore will not be able to store their digital learning. Also, they will not be able to access
their Google Classroom.
