Remote Learning Update
How Remote Learning Will Look:
All remote learning work is set via Teams. Where a ‘live lesson’ has been scheduled, this should also appear in student outlook calendars.
Where a whole class or year group is not in school, teachers will conduct live and/or interactive lessons for every student in all year groups for every lesson. As in an ordinary classroom situation, the way a lesson is delivered will suit the content/objectives of the lesson. Teachers will be ‘present’ on TEAMS for every lesson and may conduct a totally live lesson; they may set a pre-recorded LOOM and then be available to answer questions during the lesson; or they may ask students to do an independent activity but again be present on TEAMS to support students. There will be times where a teacher will turn their video off and ‘mute’ themselves whilst students complete their learning.
Where an individual student is isolating, rather than a whole class, most lessons will be ‘hybrid’ lessons, where the teacher will conduct a lesson in the classroom and via Teams at the same time. Where this is not possible, due to staff absence or the nature of the lesson, work will be set on Teams.

Attendance During Remote Learning
Attendance to lessons and form time will be monitored by staff and parents will be contacted to offer support. We understand many of you, like us, are balancing our own personal arrangements but it is important students access all lessons. Please contact your child’s form tutor if you need to discuss this further.
Timings of the Day
Students will follow their usual lesson schedule. There will be a lunch break during lesson 3 for students and staff.
At changeover between lessons, take the chance to stand and stretch. Hydrate with a drink and take a short comfort break.
How to download Microsoft Office at Home
As we use a school license for Office 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc), staff and students have free access to all these products on up to 5 devices:
Installing Office:
- Go to https://portal.office.com
- Log in
- Click “Install Office” top right of the screen and follow the on screen instructions
This will work for up to 5 computers that the member of staff/student uses.
Activating Office:
