Remote Learning

In the unlikely event of a school closure, a programme of online learning has been developed to ensure that students minimise any loss of educational time.  

Our usual advice regarding remote learning is outlined below:

Students:

• Check ClassCharts app for an overview of work set and Showbie/Google Classroom for resources and activities every day for any updates/announcements from your teachers.
• If you are unable to access ClassCharts, Showbie or Google Classroom, please use the link below to resources for independent learning, which contains a wide variety of subject specific links.
• Stick broadly to your normal academy timetable/class times where possible, to provide some structure and spread work out, although we know that this will not always be possible for a wide variety of reasons.
• Complete any work set by class teachers, to a high standard, within the time period indicated by the teachers.
• Ask questions if you do not understand or have any difficulties, during the academy day.  You can do this in the chat function in Google Classroom/Showbie or via email to your teacher.

Parents & Carers:

• Encourage students to try to follow their normal timetable where possible, to provide some structure and spread work out, although we know that this will not always be possible for a wide variety of reasons.
• Codes for Showbie and Google Classroom can be accessed by emailing Form Tutors.
• If you or your child is unable to access ClassCharts, Showbie or Google Classroom, please use the link below to resources for independent learning, which contains a wide variety of subject specific links.
• Encourage students to try and to complete any online work to the best of their abilities, where possible, depending upon home circumstances.
• Additional work is always available from teachers on request
• Encourage students to read books/listen to audio books for pleasure.
• Encourage them to balance schoolwork with other creative/physical activities to keep themselves alert and engaged.
• Encourage students to keep their communication with staff to during the academy day.
