It is possible to view school calendars on mobile phones, tablets and computers using calendar links.

You can copy the calendar links from within the InTouch portal and use them to view your school calendars on mobile phones, tablets, Windows PCs, Macs etc.  Any device or application that supports the iCal calendar format should be able to link to InTouch portal school calendars.  You can get a copy of the link you need from the calendar tab in the InTouch portal.

You will find the link you need at the bottom of the calendar page:

Clicking on the “Your calendar feed” link will open a section at the bottom of the page:

You can use the buttons in this area to:

• Generate a new link (aka URL).
• Copy the link to the clipboard on your device.
• Email the link to the email address you have registered with InTouch portal.

Using the Link on Android Devices
