This week's update letter concerning any adaptions to the arrangements that we have in school has been sent to all families via ParentMail. A copy of the letter can be found HERE . We hope you will find this useful but if you do have any questions, please do get in touch.
As part of our weekly review, we have been reflecting on all of the different elements of the systems in place currently. We know how important the role of homework is in supporting the children to make accelerated progress but we are also aware that we cannot use the approaches that we do during times that are more ‘normal’. Set out below is an overview of what homework will look like for the near future:
Homework for Key Stage One
Homework for Key Stage Two
The children in KS2 have access to a range of apps and websites using our school accounts. To reduce on the amount of items coming to and from school we are asking the children to use these apps for their homework.
Links to the websites suggested above can be found on the 'Websites To Use At Home' page - please click HERE to go directly to it.
Both Key Stage One and Key Stage Two are exploring the use of ‘Padlets’ to support home learning and effective communication between school and home. There will be further information about this – most likely within next week’s update letter. If you do have any questions about the arrangements for homework please do make contact with your child’s class teacher via the contact form – this is available on their class page on the website.
We really do appreciate your ongoing support and the patience that you are showing as we undertake the essential reviews and adaptations needed during these rapidly changing times.
