Home Video Tool – How To Guide

Step 1

Head to the video upload page, this is generally your website address with /video-upload added to the end. This page may be password protected if you would like parents to be able to send video into school.

Step 2

Add the details for video title and description. Also, add a category.

Step 3

The video is then uploaded, please don’t close the window until the video has completely uploaded.

When uploaded, you can log in to the school website admin area, click on videos on the left hand side. Here all videos that have been uploaded are listed. This current video has just been uploaded and is being processed by vimeo.

If the video is ok to be used, press ‘publish now’.
