For the first day or two, your child will be set different assignments either on Tapestry if they are in EYFS or Google Classroom if they are in Year 1 or Year 2.  These assignments will consist of an explanation of how to complete the learning task with a learning task sheet attached to complete.

We teach the same curriculum remotely as we do in school wherever possible and appropriate. However, we have needed to make some adaptations in some subjects.

If your child is in EYFS, then the online remote education platform we are providing is Tapestry. 

If your child is in Year 1 or Year 2, then the online remote education platform we are providing is Google Classroom.

• We have a ‘Device Loan It’ scheme which enables us to provide children with tablets or laptops that can be used to access the online remote education at home.
• We are also in the process of acquiring dongles for any families that do not have sufficient internet at home.
• We ask families if they require printed materials to contact the school office on admin@pennington-inf.hants.sch.uk and this can be arranged along with organising support to access suitable devices or means to access the remote education at home.
• If a child has completed any printed materials that the school has provided, please contact the school office to organise a pick up/ drop off arrangement.

• Video/audio recordings and learning tasks made by teachers uploaded to Tapestry and Google Classroom
• Printed paper packs produced by teachers (e.g. workbooks, worksheets) – whilst devices/ internet support is being organised.
• Workbooks and reading books pupils have at home
• Time Tables Rock Stars
• Rising Stars Reading
• Real PE
• Teach Your Monster to Read
• Phonics Play

• Whilst your child is at home, the expectation is that all of the learning tasks assigned daily will be completed.
• Parents and carers should try and keep to a similar structure most days to support their child.

• Your child’s engagement and completion of learning tasks will be responded to daily by their class teacher.
• A member of the school team will contact parents or carers if they have something to discuss regarding a learning task or engagement.

• Praise for completion of the learning task
• Comments/ extensions given if required
• Teacher’s may respond with a comment regarding a misconception or something that needs to be looked at again.
• Teachers will receive feedback daily on their learning tasks

• Providing bespoke printed materials to meet the needs of your child
• Providing learning tasks that can be practical
• Providing video inputs modelling the learning for the children which are short enough for the children to watch for their age.
• Providing the learning assignments, the day before to enable parents the time to plan for the learning.
• Providing virtual ‘live’ interventions for SALT, ELSA, Precision Teaching and any other specific need that has been identified, for the children to participate with at home using Teams.

In this section, please set out briefly the main differences between the approaches you have described in the rest of this template and those you will take to ensure individual pupils self-isolating are taught a planned and well-sequenced curriculum with meaningful and ambitious work each day in a number of different subjects, including providing feedback.

Learning tasks will be assigned daily following the planned and sequenced curriculum that will be taught in school.  There will be resources provided along with written explanations as to what is expected for each learning task.  Families will also be signposted to the interactive websites as mentioned above.
