Remote Learning Provision

This information is intended to provide clarity and transparency to pupils and parents or carers about what to expect from remote education where circumstances require entire cohorts to remain at home.

A pupil’s first day or two of being educated remotely might look different from our standard approach, while we take all necessary actions to prepare for a longer period of remote teaching.

For children learning at home, we use Microsoft Teams as the digital platform to access the learning and the resources needed. If you have any problems accessing your ‘Teams’ account, please email the School Office and we will help you.

Each day we will provide a mixture of live lessons, recorded video lessons and independent learning tasks that are uploaded to your child’s Teams page. The lessons will broadly follow the curriculum that would normally be delivered in school with some adaptations for home learning. The carefully structured video lessons guide the children through their learning and provide you with flexibility as they can be watched at a convenient time and re-watched as often as needed to support the children with their learning.

Children are expected to complete work in a class notebook on Teams and upload some pieces of learning as directed by their teachers. Staff will respond to key pieces of work.

Our remote learning offer is there to access in a way that suits your family and your situation which we understand will be different for everyone.
