DEEDS - Our New School Communication App Camberwell Grammar School will be replacing the existing School Portal with DEEDS from Monday 11 May 2020. DEEDS is a Portal and Learning Management System* solution that will enable CGS to centralise communication to one channel. DEEDS will provide our community with information about the curriculum, co-curricular programs and services the school provides. DEEDS is accessible from a website and is also supported by an App that is accessible from the Apple and Google Play stores. Search for ‘Camberwell Grammar School’ in these stores to locate and download the App.

These features of DEEDS will be accessible to parents in 2021. During the course of 2020, these features can be sourced from Schoology. Schoology will be accessible from a tile on the Parent Dashboard. See image below displaying the tiles feature.

We hope you find DEEDS, both the main site and the App, a useful means of accessing information from Camberwell Grammar School. Please note, buttons on the App and the means of accessing information may change over time as we introduce new features. We will inform you when any changes to the App interface are being applied. Currently, when accessing pages within the main DEEDS site from the App, you will encounter a CGS sign-in page. You only need to sign in again once when using the App. If you move to other DEEDS pages after signing in you won’t be prompted again. We are working with our provider to alleviate the need for an additional sign in once you have entered the App.
To further assist your understanding of how DEEDS works, we have created a walkthrough video for both the DEEDS website and the DEEDS app. See links below to these videos: DEEDS website walkthrough DEEDS App walkthrough If you have any questions regarding DEEDS or the App, can you please make contact via: cgsheldesk@cgs.vic.edu.au If you would like to provide feedback regarding your experience with DEEDS, please use this form to record your comments.
