Remote Learning

Remote Learning

During this period of school closure, it is important that every child continues to learn and make excellent progress. 

We understand that this is a difficult time for everybody, we have designed a remote learning offer that we hope will allow all pupils to work independently while continuing to receive the benefits of our knowledge rich curriculum.

Thank you in advance for all the support you will give your children to learn remotely.  We know this is a challenging time for all our families and our thoughts are very much with you.

Our Remote Learning 

We have developed our remote learning to make it as flexible as possible for our families as we are aware of the many different situations our families are facing.

  • Communication will be through Class Dojo
  • Work will be uploaded either the night before or by 9.00 every morning
  • We provide up to 3 hours of work every day for EYFS and KS1 and 4 hours a day for KS2
  • We are following our usual Knowledge Rich curriculum
  • The offer is the same at school as at home
  • Work will be commented on as a group and individually if appropriate
  • Staff will respond to class dojo during working hours
  • Yours child’s teacher will contact them weekly to discuss their learning via telephone
  • All work your child produces is tracked.  We encourage all children to complete all the daily learning so they are ready to return to school.
  • Remote assessments will continue to take place
  • If your child has musical tuition they can still access this remotely (please contact your school office via class dojo)
  • Assemblies will take place where appropriate and uploaded to Dojo. Class shout outs will continue

Good Routines

We understand that during this time what is possible in one household regarding routine will be different to that of another.

  • Add additional short breaks during learning time if your child is finding concentrating for long periods difficult
  • Try to keep to a regular timetable
  • Include on the timetable all learning, free time, exercise, dinner, music lesson, etc this will aid your child’s focus for the day

Please contact your headteacher if you feel you need additional support.
