Remote Learning Plan 2021There are lots of different scenarios where remote education will need to be used. Please read through these below, as they provide further details of our expectations and key actions in the event of each scenario.Scenario 1 In the event of an individual pupil having to self-isolate because they, or a family member, has symptoms. E.g. when a child has symptoms and must stay off school until they receive a negative test result.Step 1: Parents/carers are to phone the school to notify us that their child/children have symptoms/a household member has symptoms and that they have to self-isolate. In this instance, it is important that the symptomatic person at home is tested as soon as possible so that the child affected can return to school, missing as little time as possible. Step 2: The office staff will clarify if school’s digital platform is accessible at home and if the child has access to a digital device. Step 3: The teacher will be notified of the child’s absence and work will be set, using the remote learning activities template and posted on the school’s digital platform. This will be ready the next day. The teacher will set work for the remainder of the week, regardless of the first day of absence, not daily. If the child remains absent the following week, another 'remote learning activities template’ will be issued via the school’s digital platform for the next five days. Step 4: A paper pack of work can be delivered to the child’s house (if no digital alternative can be made). This is a last resort and the school will explore every option before this so that the child receives the best possible remote education experience.Scenario 2In the event of a positive COVID-19 case, resulting in a bubble having to self-isolate for 10 days. E.g. a child from our school receives a positive test result.Step 1: Parents/carers are to inform the school either by phone (during school hours) or via the office email office.carlton@kirkleeseducation.uk (out of school hours) of a confirmed positive case. The parents/carers of every child in that bubble will be contacted by the school and informed of the isolation period. Step 2: Parents/carers have the responsibility to inform the school if the school’s digital platform is not accessible at home and if their child does not have access to a digital device at home. The school will plan how to best support the child/children and family in this instance.Step 3: The teacher, who will also be self-isolating and working off-site, will set daily work on the school’s digital platform, using the remote learning activities template. This will be ready from the first day of self-isolation and will be set on a Monday through to Friday but not on the weekend. If the teacher is too sick to deliver lessons then cover will be provided so that the children do not miss learning time. Step 4: The children will post their work on the school’s digital platform for their teacher to review. The teacher will interact with the children on the school’s digital platform throughout the week, providing feedback, assessing the children and, where necessary, revising materials or simplifying expectations to ensure pupils’ understanding. Staff will work and be available on the school’s digital platform and via email between the hours of 9:15am and 3:15pm, Monday to Friday apart from their allocated PPA (Planning, Preparation and Assessment) time which parents will be made aware of. This is because all teachers are legally entitled to PPAScenario 3 In the event of a whole-school closure due to a national or local lockdown.Stage 1: Parent/carers to contact school to clarify if the school’s digital platform is not accessible at home and if the child has no access to a digital device. Staff will do their best to resolve this. Paper packs will be given until this is resolved. Stage 2: The teacher will set daily work on the school’s digital platform, using the remote learning activities template. This will be ready from the first day of closure through to the last day and will be set on a Monday through to Friday but not on the weekend. Stage 3: The children or parents will post their work on the school’s digital platform for their teacher to review on a weekly basis. The teacher will interact with the children via the school’s digital platform during the live sessions, providing feedback, assessing the children and, where necessary, revising materials or simplifying expectations to ensure pupils’ understanding. Staff will work and be available on between the hours of 9:15am and 3:15pm, Monday to Friday apart from their allocated PPA.Provision -Remote Learning will be available within 24 hours of the school being informed that a pupil is self-isolating or closure of bubble/school. -Pupils will be set a range of daily tasks which match the medium term planning for their year group.

(Please see individual class statements and timetables) -The lessons will reflect the broad curriculum that pupils receive when at school- driving the same ethos, vision, values and principles.
