We are committed to supporting every child’s learning, whether they are in school or learning from home. Our remote learning approach ensures that children continue to make progress and stay connected with their teachers and classmates when they are unable to attend school in person.

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. 

 We will send children via Dojo and they will have their reading book but your class teacher will be in touch within the first day to give guidance on which pages to start on. They will also point you to your class page on the school website that has useful learning resources and links. You will also be able to access your class home learning book on the class page and links to accelerated reader and WWN.

 We will teach the same curriculum remotely as we do in school wherever possible and appropriate. However, we have needed to make some adaptations in some subjects. For example, practical lessons that require specific resources may not be taught. We have had to adapt some lessons and keep track of content that we need to revisit. We will, were possible deliver 'Live Lessons' so that children can continue to interact with each other. 

 

Learning apps

All of our learning apps are subscription services set up by the school. They are secure and managed by your class teacher.

 

Accelerated Reader

Children read their reading book and can take an online comprehension quiz at home. All of the children have a log on and user name card in their home learning books but teachers can reissue these if you have misplaced them. Your teacher will see how often you are quizzing and your results. Children use this application every day at school so they are very familiar with how it works.

We will check engagement with remote education every day. Your teacher will keep a record of the learning you are doing on our learning apps, work submitted via dojo and the books you are reading.

If we can see that a pupil is not accessing learning we will contact you to offer support and see if you need help with resources, devices or the internet. If you are struggling please contact us. We are here to help.
