Students

All middle and upper primary school students in city-run primary schools will have access to a learning device, either a Chromebook or an iPad. Having your own learning device increases the possibilities for more varied project work and many forms of support for learning.

Students receive access to Google Workspace for Education, where teachers post study materials and instructions in Google Classrooms and where students deliver digital assignments.

Where Do I Start?

You need to use your school email @gskolar.is to sign in to the Chromebook and Google Workspace for Education.
