Hwb

Hwb is a digital learning platform that allows pupils and teachers in Wales greater access to online resources. It allows users to access and share information from any internet-enabled device. The Hwb platform is managed and operated by the Welsh Government.

Via the Hwb platform, users have access to a wide range of online learning environments such as;

• Microsoft Office 365
• Outlook Email
• OneDrive (cloud-based storage)
• Just 2 Easy (j2e)
• Google for Education
• Google Classroom 
• Google Drive (cloud-based storage)

and many other relevant educational tools and resources!

Welsh Government has made these additional services available to help children to access educational resources.

At Ysgol Gronant and Ysgol Trelogan, we use Hwb and its additional services to develop our Literacy and Numeracy skills, along with our Digital skills.
