Remote Learning Offer

Remote Learning at St Teresa's

At St Teresa's, we believe that regular school attendance is essential for children's learning, wellbeing and development. We encourage all pupils to attend school every day whenever possible.

There may, however, be occasions when a pupil is unable to attend school but is well enough to continue learning. In these circumstances, the school may provide access to remote learning to help pupils stay connected with their education.

When Remote Learning May Be Used

Remote learning may be provided when:

• A pupil is unable to attend school for a short period due to illness but is well enough to engage with learning.
• Individual circumstances prevent attendance for a temporary period.
• Other exceptional situations arise where remote education is appropriate.

Remote learning is not intended to replace attendance at school. Face-to-face teaching remains the most effective way for children to learn, and pupils should return to school as soon as they are able.

How Learning Will Be Shared

Where remote learning is appropriate, teachers will provide learning opportunities through SeeSaw, which is our main platform for communicating and sharing learning with pupils and families.

Learning may include:

• Teacher-created activities and assignments
• Reading, writing and mathematics tasks
• Curriculum-based learning linked to current class topics
• Educational resources and videos
• Feedback from teachers where appropriate

We may also use high-quality resources such as:

• Oak National Academy
• White Rose Maths
• Online learning platforms used in school

Expectations for Pupils

We encourage pupils to:

• Engage with the learning provided each day where possible.
• Complete tasks to the best of their ability.
• Share completed work through SeeSaw when requested.
• Continue reading regularly at home.

Support for Families

If families experience difficulties accessing remote learning, including access to devices or online platforms, please contact the school office and we will do our best to provide support.

For further information about remote learning, please contact the school directly.
