We are committed to ensuring children can continue their education at home through our remote learning arrangements. Should the school need to close for three or less days, children across the school will be assigned an investigative task which requires them to complete a selection of activities which span across all different areas of the curriculum. Siblings from several year groups can work on together on the tasks assigned should they wish. Children will be signposted to a range of different websites to support their learning. We will ensure that families do not have unreasonable requests made of them in order to complete projects or tasks. 

Remote provision will be different from the above should we need to close for an extended period of time. We will aim to continue teaching our outlined curriculum across the school. All pupils will be able to access our remote learning resources on Microsoft Teams. Teachers will present some lessons and set work for them to complete, and will review the work submitted. Where required, remote learning will be emailed out to parents in Years 1 - 6, and Foundation Stage children will receive this through Tapestry.

Each day your child would be expected to:

• Login to Microsoft Teams using their individual account so they are able to access the lessons and activities set
• Attend any scheduled lessons for that day
• Complete all tasks that have been set for the day

We will ensure that families who do not have access to the internet and devices receive a paper pack of work to ensure children are able to complete their learning.

Please note that we are unable to provide remote learning for leaves of absence for pupils which are unauthorised, such as extended family holidays, or time abroad.  All pupils should attend school, in line with our attendance policy. Remote education is not viewed as an equal alternative to attendance in school. Advice from our Attendance Support Worker is that we should not provide remote learning where unauthorised absence is taken, as this is not effective in mitigating the impact of the absence and should not allow these absences to be considered as any less harmful.
