Remote Learning
Support for Home Learning
In line with our Remote Learning Policy, teachers will provide class-specific Remote Learning on the second full day of either school site closure or when a child cannot attend school but is well enough to continue with their learning and whose absence is authorised.
For the first full day of Remote Learning, this page provides a range of learning opportunities for children to continue their learning. It includes a a catalogue of ideas, advice and inspiration and a document with websites that contain a wealth of learning for across the curriculum.
For details of topics being taught each term, visit the 'Year Group Pages' within the 'Curriculum' section of the website.

Reading
Daily reading has always been the key to unlocking children's imagination, encouraging curiosity of the world and developing vocabulary as well as giving an opportunity for shared experiences and deep discussion of themes and issues. There are many more ways to read than just picking up a book. Non-fiction reading can include magazines, comics, information books on Science, History or the natural world, to name a few.
Away from traditional reading materials, we can also enjoy story through audiobooks, YouTube storytelling and internet websites on a huge range of topics. Instructions are also really great sources for giving children a sense of purpose in their reading - perhaps follow a recipe or a method for building a model? Remind children that reading is everywhere for many purposes and can be enjoyed in different ways.
Writing
Pobble is a fantastic free resource designed to inspire children's writing and ignite ideas.
One picture.
One teaching resource.
Every day!
Each picture has with it: Questions to discuss, story starters, 'sick' sentences to improve, a sentence challenge and a creative activity.
Whilst there is a main picture which is visible on the home screen every day, you are able to click backwards and forwards through the pictures to choose one that grabs your child's attention. An easy to use and excellent website you could use with your children.
