Home Learning
Full details of our approach to Home Learning, or Remote Learning as it is sometimes known, can be found in our Remote Learning Policy on the Policies page. When required, provision for all children is provided via Google Classroom. You child's class teacher will provide you with log-in details to use and your child will be able to participate in a 3-4 hours of education per day.
If you have any questions or problems in accessing Google Classroom, please let the school know.
