In the event that our pupils cannot attend school on a daily basis, the following resources can be used to ensure that pupils do not fall behind in their learning.
Please read our Remote Learning Policy which outlines our remote learning offer. It can be viewed by following the link bellow.
All teachers will be available to communicate with parents through Class Dojo. For Early Years, please make sure you log on each day so that your child doesn’t miss out on daily tasks set.

In Key stage 1 and 2 we will continue to communicate with parents using Dojo but work for children will be set using Microsoft Teams. There will be a live collective worship each day. In the event of the school being unable to open. There will also be a live session with the teacher each afternoon.

We will send some books home with children. These must be returned to school. The accelerated reader book finder can be used to check the level of a book your child might like to read. All the children know which level book they should be using.
