​OUR REMOTE LEARNING OFFER

At Boasley Cross Primary, despite school remaining closed, except to children of critical workers and vulnerable learners, the education for our pupils has continued thanks to the hard work and resilience of staff and parents in our community.
Since the last lockdown in March, we have strived to improve both our online provision as well as students’ access to it, to ensure our students remain fully engaged with their education throughout this lockdown.
  • Staff are planning a broad and balanced curriculum, delivered through digital technologies and asynchronous methods (prepared by the teacher and accessed later by the pupil) with some synchronous methods (‘live lessons’).
  • Our remote curriculum is designed to engage the children and make learning accessible as well as attainable for parents at home.
  • Our remote curriculum is posted to parents and children on Class Dojo – an easy platform to access and navigate.
  • We are using Zoom more frequently to encourage ‘live’ class catch ups so that children have a chance to check in with their teacher and friends.
  • Staff will feedback on pupil learning through the Class Dojo ‘portfolio’ section – offering support where necessary during their normal working hours.
  • We work with parents and carers, without putting unreasonable burden on them with a ‘do what you can’ approach to help support home learning.
  • We will send home ‘learning packs’ and early reading books which include resources to compliment the remote learning curriculum.
  • We are providing digital devices to all disadvantaged students to help them access remote learning and are working extremely hard to ensure every child can access their education.
  • We use whole school digital assemblies and feedback to pupils and parents to help them feel part of the community even when learning remotely.
