It has been great welcoming our pupils back to Ysgol Bae Baglan over the last few weeks. We do however understand the need to plan for any occurrence regarding COVID -19 and the possible self-isolation of our pupils. On this page you will find all the necessary links and advice you need to carry on your education at home while self-isolating.
Where do I find the work that has been set?
All home learning will be delivered through our homework app ‘Satchel One’ (previously known as ShowMyHomework). All pupils should have their log in details to access this app/website, however you can also contact the school technical team on ybbitsupport@npt.school to obtain your pin.
