REMOTE LEARNING

We believe that Remote Learning and learning in the classroom are not that different. Pupils need a teacher to explain content and they need opportunities to practice and demonstrate what they have learned. As such, we follow the full timetable as per normal school and expect all students to attend every lesson.

Providing Remote Education - Information for Parents

​

 

• Lessons take place on Microsoft Teams and are scheduled in pupil calendars

• Pupils will be listening to presentations, completing quizzes, writing assignments, discussing topics just like in a normal school day

• Lessons will not involve a full hour of presentation from the teacher. There will often be independent work for pupils to complete

• Homework is not set at KS3 and 4 but remains for KS5
