Remote Education
Remote education provision
Autumn 21 - we continue to use Class Dojo as our learning platform, in which, in the case of another lockdown, work will be set by the class teacher and the work can then be directly sent back to the class teacher, for feedback. There is also a secure messaging system in place where parents can connect with teachers privately with work related issues.
School Story
If there is another lockdown, School Story will be used to share collective worships and whole school information or support for families. This may include, tutorials to access/use Dojo from home, well being activities for adults and children as well as any 'drop-in' sessions or contact information to seek further support, if needed.
Class Story
Teachers will use Class Story to:
- Post a weekly timetable
- Record tutorial lessons (maximum 8 minute upload feature)
- Set activities and challenges
- Share links to learning sites or video clips, to encourage and engage pupils to practice their skills and learn new skills and knowledge
- Read the class story each day
- Celebrate children's work at the end of the each week.
Portfolios
Portfolios will be used by teachers, to set individual or group work for children. This ensures children with individual targets are accessing learning that is appropriate and catered to their needs and ability. Children who work in different groups for lessons e.g. Read Write Inc will also have work set through their portfolio.
Parents and pupils will use portfolios to upload the work set by class teachers, as well as upload any further learning they have undertaken at home, for example: playing a musical instrument, baking, telling the teacher about their day etc. Portfolio allows children to take ownership of their work, they can share their work by either recording audio/visual, using the writing tool, doodle tool and/or uploading a file or photo.
