Adding a calendar from an existing directory in Outlook on the web is straightforward. Here are the steps:


If you are using a computer inside the school you are automatically signed in so you can open Outlook from your MyApps tab and go straight to step 2.


  1. Sign in to your Outlook on the web account at Microsoft Office and clicking the Outlook icon  
  2. Go to the Calendar section by clicking the Calendar icon in the top left of the screen. 
  3. Click on 'Add calendar.'
  4. In the window that pops up, select 'Add from directory'.
  5. From the drop down menu 'Please select an account to search from', select your email address.
  6. From the 'Select a person...', start typing school and you should see the School Calendar pop up. Click this.
  7. Choose a folder/menu option from the drop down menu of where to add the calendar to and then click 'Add'.
  8. The calendar should now be visible in your Calendar. You can toggle the calendar being visible by checking and unchecking the tick next to the calendar name. For more options for the calendar (including changing the colour), click the three dots next to the calendar name.


Happy calendaring! ?️
