Remote Education – Learning from Home

Home Learning Policy

Dear Parents, Carers and Children,

As we begin Home Learning – we wish you all the very best. Teachers have uploaded a suggested timetable, their lessons and subsequent work onto the Google Drive. They will also be hosting a ‘live’ Google meet each day. You can access the Google folders for all year groups below or through the link teachers have sent to you.

Please know that we are here for you and if you have any questions, worries or need any support please do contact your class teacher or the office. We are more than happy to help and want to ensure that Home Learning runs smoothly for you all. If you are feeling overwhelmed or need a conversation please contact the office and they will let us know.

If you need a stationary pack for home, please let your class teacher know and this can be arranged for you. If you need a laptop, please let us know and we will do all we can to support this request – the deadline for requests is 3.00pm on Thursday 7th January.

Mr Cook has produced this useful video for you to support you with how to access the Google Meetings.

I am going to be producing a Friday video for all the children where I will be sharing a story and carrying on with our prayers and birthdays.

Well done everyone!

Lizzie Grainger
