Everything ready to go at last!!!! Online school starts at 08:00 am tomorrow, Tuesday 28SEP2020.

Due to a HUGE water pipe flood into the computer control room in the Senior Department, we have lost all internet connectivity to the school and all UPS power to our servers. This happened at about 18:10 this evening. An initial assessment that has just finished has found that there is extensive damage to the UPS system, the servers and the main network switches. We hope to be able to get everything up and running by tomorrow afternoon.

The main problem is that we will have to delay the start of Online School until Tuesday at 8:00 am.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Here is the timetable for the Online Teaching tomorrow, Monday 28SEP2020.

A short video giving details about starting on Monday 28SEP2020.

On Monday 28SEP2020 we will be starting school!!!! At Last! ONLINE.

Classes 9, 10A, 11A and Class 12 will start their first lesson online at 8:00 am on Monday 28SEP2020.

As last year they will be using Google Classroom and new emails and details about the exact details of the following will be sent individually by WhatsApp :

1 : Timetable : 5 hours, 50 mins each period. One 30 minute break between 10:30 – 11:00 am.

2 : New @lesbg.com emails will be issued to every student so that they can use the new Google G Suite Classrooms, different than they were last year.

3 : Google Meet will be the streaming platform that we use for the first few weeks. Please download the app from the Google Play Store or the AppStore if you will be using a phone. If you will be using a laptop or a tablet, Google Meet runs in a browser.

4 : Bags of stationary and books will need to be picked up. As soon as these are available, you will be informed.

Hopefully tomorrow afternoon I will do a livestream with fuller details.

Dates for other classes will be rolled out as things become clearer.
