Remote Learning
Introduction to Remote Learning
During unprecedented times, children may be working remotely for a significant period of time either due to lockdown or having to self-isolate. At St Paul's, we want to ensure that children continue to receive the highest level of education despite the obvious difficulties.
Our number one priority is the safety and well-being of all children and staff at our school. It is important that anyone who cannot be in school remains at home but continues to be supported with their education and well-being.
How Remote Learning Works
If school is closed for a substantial length of time children will be fully supported with their learning.
Children will continue to receive a broad and balanced curriculum with all subjects being covered remotely in a variety of ways.
We have invested heavily in online resources to ensure that the children have high quality websites to use such as Accelerated Reader, Oaks Academy and TT Rock Stars. These resources all help to support children with their learning.
Daily timetables explain to the children what lesson they are doing and when. We use lots of video clips and video links to teach new content and to consolidate understanding. Children are given activities to complete either via one of the websites or by hand. When not using the websites, we ask children to email their work to their class teacher. This enables the teacher to see how well each child is doing, give praise and encouragement and support them to further progress through feedback and adapting the next lesson in the sequence of learning to further their understanding.
Children can complete activities on the computer or on paper and either email a copy of the file or take a photo of their completed work and email that to their teacher. It is important that we receive work regularly in order to support children to continue to progress and developing their understanding particularly because we are continuing to teach new concepts and skills.
We also offer live lessons through Teams for all children. These lessons are used to teach children and ensure that children can ask and answer questions in order to cement their understanding.
We also offer assemblies and collective worship – some of which are run through live Teams sessions for the whole school.
