Should the school have to close for any reason eg snow, power cuts, etc. the plan for remote learning would be as follows:
SCHOOL CLOSURE DUE TO SNOW
Day One
Snow is rare and children love playing in it. So there will be no remote learning to allow children to make snowmen, go sledging, drink hot chocolate and whatever other fun, snow related things are available.
Day Two and Three: Remote learning
Years 1 – 6
- Registration via a TEAMs meeting set up by the class teacher. Following feedback from parents last year, registration times will be staggered to allow families with children in different classes to access the computer:
- Year 1 – 8:50 and 1:00
- Year 2 – 9:00 and 1:10
- Year 3 – 9:10 and 1:20
- Year 4 – 9:20 and 1:30
- Year 5 – 9:30 and 1:40
- Year 6 – 9:40 and 1:50
- Teachers will set an English and a Maths assignment for children to be completed by the end of the day.
- This work will be marked and feedback will be given via TEAMs by 5pm the next day.
- The afternoon is free to enjoy the snow – maybe do some science or art outside!
Reception – Day Two onwards
An email will be sent to all parents with a link to follow for registration to take place. Worksheets for the pupils to do each day will also be attached to the email.
Please ensure that the school has your most up to date email address.
Day Four and onwards: Remote learning
Years 1- 6

· Teachers will set an English, Maths and a foundation subject (for instance history or art) assignment for children to completed by the end of the day.
· This work will be marked and feedback will be given via TEAMs by 5pm the next day.
SCHOOL CLOSURE DUE TO NON-SNOW RELATED INCIDENTS.
- There will be no remote learning on Day one of the closure. This will allow teachers to plan and prepare remote work should the closure be extended beyond one day.
- Day Two onwards – will follow the plan above from Day 4
