Additional materials and websites have also been linked to that can support independent learning when at home. Please be aware that some departmental sites require login credentials such as school email address, username and passwords. Contact your child's class teacher if they do not know their school email, username or password.

Microsoft Office software (School email address required. May be asked for school username/ password)

All Queensland state school students can download multiple free copies of the latest Microsoft Office to their personal home computers and mobile devices.

Students will need to use their school email address to sign in. Students who don’t have a school login, school email account and password should contact their school's Managed Internet Service (MIS) administrator or class teacher. The administrator will help students activate their school login.

Microsoft Office 2016 is available for personal devices only, not devices owned by the department or part of a school network. 

Your Office subscription lasts for as long as you’re a Queensland state school student or school-based staff member.

For PC and Mac, visit the Office Portal, login using your school email address, click through to install and follow the onscreen process.
