Satchel: One is our online homework tool, replacing the paper homework diaries. This system is designed to help our young people manage their homework tasks efficiently. Personal log-in details are issued to every student in Bearsden Academy to allow access to Satchel: One. They can also gain access via their Glow account.

Parents and carers are also issued with personal log-in details to help them support their child with learning at home.

Satchel: One allows students to access their homework from their home computers,   tablets or smart phones.

Some great benefits and features of this system are:

• Students can easily see all homework online, via their account
• Homework is accessible 24/7, and not fully reliant on paper-based resources. Some Departments will continue to issue homework on paper and post a notice of the task on Satchel: One.
• Students have a clear summary of all homework tasks.
• Teachers may accept an online submission once the homework task is complete.
• Teachers can also set students quizzes and provide feedback or recommendations for next steps.
• Users receive automatic reminders when using the mobile app.

Satchel: One can be used through their website on a browser or through their free App. This is available on most tablets and smartphones, including Android (Google Play Store) and Apple iOS (Apple Store). You can download the apps via the links below:

When the app is installed on your device, remember to enable push notifications so you can receive alerts for:

• New homework has been set
• Overdue homework
• Student submissions

• Please support students in accessing Satchel: One regularly. This can be done through their Glow account, or they may also choose to download the app onto a mobile device.
• An email has been issued containing ‘Parent Codes’ for parent/carer access. This will allow you to link your account to your child’s and view the homework tasks which have been set.

If you choose to download the app you can receive notifications for tasks issued to your child as well as any whole school announcements.

Parents/Carers can log into the system by clicking here.

Should you have any issues with logging in please get in contact with your child’s Guidance teacher for support.

Students:

• Teachers publish tasks online, set a deadline and indicate how the task is to be submitted. This may be an online or paper submission.
• Students complete the task and ensure it is submitted on time.
• An electronic copy of resources for tasks can be made available online in addition to any paper copies issued in class.
• Teachers may use Satchel: One to issue grades or feedback.

 Pupils can sign in using the “Sign in with RM Unify” button, followed by their Glow username (ed010jsmith22@glow.sch.uk for John Smith starting at BA in 2022).

You can reset you Glow password by visiting the school office.

As with homework diaries it is important to engage with Satchel: One regularly to ensure students complete all set tasks on time.
