This is usually the result of trying to log in to the Office 365 for Staff page instead of the student email login page.  It is possible to accidentally get to this page by entering your username with @rhul.ac.uk on the end instead of @live.rhul.ac.uk.

Go to mail.live.rhul.ac.uk to get the correct login page, then make sure you enter the username in the format abcd123@live.rhul.ac.uk
