Remote Learning

The points below cover our expectations for students during any periods where remote learning maybe necessary and advice on how you can support them:

Check SIMS app for an overview of work set and Showbie/Google Classroom for resources and activities every day for any updates/announcements from your teachers.
Teachers may send you links to access the lesson via Zoom webinar. You will be able to see the teacher but they will not be able to see you.
Stick broadly to your normal academy timetable/class times where possible, to provide some structure and spread work out, although we know that this will not always be possible for a wide variety of reasons.
Complete any work set by class teachers, to a high standard, within the time period indicated by the teachers.
Ask questions if you do not understand or have any difficulties, during the academy day. You can do this in the chat function on the zoom webinar, in google classroom/showbie or via email to your teacher.

Encourage students to try to follow their normal timetable where possible, to provide some structure and spread work out, although we know that this will not always be possible for a wide variety of reasons.
Codes for Showbie & Google Classroom can be accessed by emailing Form Tutors.
Encourage students to try and to complete any online work to the best of their abilities, where possible, depending upon home circumstances.
Additional work is always available from teachers on request
Encourage students to read books/listen to audio books for pleasure.
Encourage them to balance schoolwork with other creative/physical activities to keep themselves alert and engaged.
Encourage students to keep their communication with staff to during the academy day.
