This allows you to install Microsoft 365 on up to 5 x PC's, 5 x Tablets and 5 x Phones. It is compatible with Windows 10 and 11, and the three most recent versions of macOS.

Licenses have already been assigned so you should be able to start using this today. To access Microsoft 365, all you need to do is log in to https://www.microsoft365.com/ on a home device. You'll use the same email address and password as you use for the Google apps.
You can then install the apps on your home devices by clicking on Install apps in the upper right and selecting your desired option.
Within this license, we have also given all staff access to a useful collaboration tool, Microsoft Planner. This tool allows you to plan projects, tasks and easily visualize teamwork by assigning tasks to different people. You can access this at https://tasks.office.com/. If you're interested, take a look at some quick videos about how to use it.
Access is only provided whilst you are a staff member at Barton Peveril College and will be removed if you leave.
