Remote and Home Learning

Remote Learning Policy

Please click here to read our Remote Learning Policy and here  to view our Online Classroom Rules.

Below are a range of recommended websites to enhance the children's learning or to access in the event of your child not being able to attend school, including in the event of any possible future periods of isolation or bubble/school closure.

In the event of your child having to isolate or their bubble/school being closed, work will be set directly by the class teacher within 2 working days. Please make use of these resources in the meantime to support your child's learning.

Remote Learning – Device Loans

If your child’s learning is being affected by a lack of suitable devices at home, please let us know. We have a small number of devices available to lend to the most needy families. Please get in touch with your class teacher if your family wishes to be considered for the loan of a device. Similarly, if you have an old (up to 5 years old) laptop or tablet that still works, with power/charging plug and cable, and would like to donate it, please let us know via the school office.

We have collected useful website links for you to access materials at home to help support and develop your child's learning. There are a lot here so just investigate them gradually. Please remember to check all videos and websites before showing them to your child to make sure the content is appropriate as we are unable to guarantee that changes have not occurred from the time of posting this. We will add to them as we find ones that we recommend so please keep looking back at this page. If you have any websites or apps you think would be good to share then please email them to us so that we can take a look.
