Hi All
It feels like there's lots of information being fired at you just now so I'll make this very quick.
Important messages for the Zoom session tonight.
The brilliant Matthew Bird has worked out why some people couldn't be allocated in to the Zoom Breakout rooms when we did the test on Friday.
YOU MUST HAVE YOUR ZOOM ACCOUNT SET UP TO ALLOW ALLOCATION OF BREAKOUT ROOMS - I know many of you have already checked this, thank you.
Here's how you do it:
In Zoom, go to and click SETTINGS
Scroll down to In Meeting (Advanced)
Under 'Breakout Room'. Switch it on (toggle right)
Then tick the box to 'allow host to assign participants to breakout rooms when scheduling'.
Hit SAVE
I've made a video showing exactly what you need to do. It's here:

Next. Zoom 5.0
YOU MUST Have Zoom 5.0 or later to use Zoom desktop services. Zoom have switched off all previous versions from May 30th. Just double check that you can still use yours. Clicking the zoom link for 'Tonights Zoom Training' below will allow you to confirm. Please don't wait until 5.55pm tomorrow to find out you are still on Zoom version 4.6 :)
A reminder of Monday's Zoom Meeting Link:
Meeting ID: 837 0907 6543
If you are asked for a password it is YOUR ZOOM PASSWORD the meeting doesn't have one.
I know this all seems a bit techy and faffy, but once it's set up properly, it will be a wonderful user experience.
Thank you.
See you Tomorrow night at 6pm (from 5.50 in the waiting room).
Be Brilliant!
Michael
