All documentation relevant to students’ school life can be found here. Firefly is available from home via the internet: [https://ctk.fireflycloud.net](https://ctk.fireflycloud.net/) **School email** is accessible from Firefly and the school website or [here](https://mail.ctk.lancs.sch.uk/) All of the above require the same USERNAME and PASSWORD to access. To avoid students losing or forgetting their details, we do ask students to write down their details inside their planner. However, the following is the format that is used for those listed above: **Username:** **Intake year (2 digits) > Surname > First initial** 1. Joe Bloggs starting Year 7 in 2018, the Username is: **18BloggsJ** **Email address:** **Username@ctk.lancs.sch.uk** 1. For username = 18BloggsJ, email is [**18BloggsJ@ctk.lancs.sch.uk**](mailto:18BloggsJ@ctk.lancs.sch.uk) Passwords are allocated to students when they start school. To ensure the password is not forgotten, we do recommend that students write this into their planner, and use the same password for sites where personal passwords can be chosen ### Videos to help you to logon to Firefly and Office 365 away from school [YouTube video](https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zF8aEQwIQxA?rel=0) [YouTube video](https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/xvpnwK_eKFM?rel=0) [YouTube video](https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/YCIQGVwyNHo?rel=0) ### Editing or creating Word or PowerPoint documents from Office 365 and Firefly.
