TOP 10 TIPS – REMOTE LEARNING FOR PARENTS

Remote learning can be a great way to continue learning outside the classroom, particularly in difficult circumstances.

For parents and carers, the idea of remote learning isn’t always straightforward and there can be a number of factors they need to consider, especially around ensuring their children feel comfortable and are familiar with the whole concept. That’s why we’ve created this guide to help parents and carers support their child in getting the most out of their remote learning experience.

We await further detail on the Tyne & Wear School Games County Finals format before we confirm the number of qualifiers from South Tyneside.  We’ll be in touch with further information once known.

Dear Parents/ carers,

We have been asked by the Department for Education (DfE) and Local Authority (LA) to collect vital information that can allow them to support us as a school, particularly if we go into a local lockdown or schools themselves have to be partially or fully closed. It is really important that we are ready for such an occasion.

We need to ask some important questions which must be answered openly and honestly.

IF YOU HAVE A CHILD or CHILDREN IN YEARS 3-6 ONLY, THEN CONTINUE…

You can access this survey via the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/9Y2L8TL

Alternatively via our Facebook page and clicking the link: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/DBKZ82G

This must be completed before Wednesday 16th September.

Many Thanks.
