Remote Learning- How will it change now the children are back in school?
Remote learning will continue in the event of a school closure. In this event, your child’s teacher will contact you via dojo with the learning expectations for that day.
How will I access the home learning?
We use the digital platform Microsoft Teams.
It works best through a tablet or a laptop, but you can access it through a phone, an X Box or a PlayStation.
We have produced some guides to help you log in, but we are on hand at to offer support.

The remote curriculum: what is taught to pupils 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.
What should my child expect from immediate remote education in the first day or two of pupils being sent home?
Pupils will be provided with links to relevant and enjoyable activities. This is likely to include a maths activity, a writing activity, ideas for reading and the broader curriculum.
Following the first few days of remote education, will my child be taught broadly the same curriculum as they would if they were in school?
• We teach a curriculum remotely whose content is closely aligned to that which will be taught in school.
• We make use of relevant video lessons and content from Oak Academy, NCETM and the BBC with these being prefaced by short teacher introductions to explain the aims of the learning
• Teachers produce recorded lessons using the materials they are using with the “in school children” e.g. a flipchart based lesson in maths will a have a voice over that can be paused and replayed providing explanations and support
• Pupils are provided with appropriate independent reading materials using “Bug Club”
Remote teaching and study time each day
How long can I expect work set by the school to take my child each day?
We expect that remote education (including remote teaching and independent work) will take pupils broadly the following number of hours each day:
Primary school-aged pupils Approximately 3 hours (KS1) and 4 hours (KS2) per day plus additional time for individual reading or storytime with a parent
