How does Zoom work?

We are using a platform called ‘Zoom’. Some of you may have already used this before, but if not, it’s very simple to use.

Simply search the app store on your device for ‘Zoom Online Meetings’ or visit https://zoom.us/download. Once you have downloaded it on your device or laptop, you then need to click ‘Join a Meeting’ and enter the Meeting ID and Password at the bottom of this email. (You do not need to sign up or login to zoom.)

When joining, it should ask you what name to use, by default it could just say for example, ‘iPhone’. Please rename this to the family surname/ the surname that we have on record for your young person, so that we can ensure that you are let in via the waiting room – we’d hate for you to miss out!

Make sure you connect to audio, and turn your camera on.
