Archway Student Access
Report a Concern:
Student Usernames and Passwords
Your username is unique and made up of your first name, last name and date of birth.
Your school email is your username followed by @archwayschool.net
Password requirements and tipsStudent passwords must be a minimum of 8 characters.
It can't be a password you've used before and it cannot contain words such as "archway", your username, or your first or last names.
Tip 1: Don't use a pass"word" use a pass"phrase". Pick 4 random words that you can remember easily, make a story out of those 4 words that you can always remember:
For example: If you got a kitten on a Tuesday and there was sunshine, and your favourite food is chocolate. Try using: kittentuesdaysunshinechocolate as a password. It's very long, however it's easy to remember, and will have a higher strength and greater level of entropy than a pass"word" would likely have.
Tip 2: Now that you've got an easy to remember pass phrase, add in some complexity:
Capitalise each word to make it: KittenTuesdaySunshineChocolate. Maybe you got the kitten on the 31st, so you can make it Kitten31TuesdaySunshineChocolate. Lastly the sunshine and chocolate might have made you happy, so you can add the final bit of complexity with a smiley face to create the impenetrable passphrase of: Kitten31TuesdaySunshine:)Chocolate
Tip 3: Check your passwords on https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords to ensure your password isn't on a known list of weak passwords.
Tip 4: Check your password strength at https://www.security.org/how-secure-is-my-password/ to get an idea of how hard it would be for someone to crack your password, it'll also give you suggestions for your password on how to make it stronger.
Tip 5: For more advanced password management use a password manager app and generate strong unique passwords for each account you have. Avoid using the same password more than once if you can help it.

Satchel:One Login - Use the orange "Login with Office 365" button!
If you have problems logging in to Satchel:One, follow these steps:
1. Ensure you're clicking on the "Login with Microsoft Office 365" button, rather than using the login form. You should then be asked for your school email followed by your school password.
If you're logging in from outside of school you may then be asked for your second factor authentication method (App authenticator code, or SMS message code).
If you're logging in from a school device or on the school Wi-Fi, the second factor authentication won't be requested.
2. If you have a home Microsoft/Outlook/Live/Hotmail account you may have problems logging in via the office 365 link due to cached/stored details of your personal account on your device.
Steps to resolve this depend on the device and web browser you're using, you'll need to browse using a guest or InPrivate/Incognito window, some examples of where to find this below:
- In Google Chrome go to the top right, click on the coloured circle and choose to open a new Guest window.
- In Edge go to the top right settings menu and open a new InPrivate window.
- In Safari open a new tab and select Private tab.
Important note: The login process will fail when using Internet Explorer. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer for any schoolwork.
