Birchwood C of E Primary School

 Remote education
High-quality remote learning at Birchwood C of E Primary School will  be provided for all pupils and students if:
• they have tested positive for COVID-19 but are well enough to learn from home; or
• attendance at Birchwood C of E  has been temporarily restricted
On-site provision should in all cases be retained for vulnerable children and young people and the children of critical workers. If Birchwood C of E have to temporarily stop onsite provision on public health advice, they should discuss alternative arrangements for vulnerable children and young people with the local authority. Full detail on remote education expectations and the support available to schools and FE providers is available at Get help with remote education.

If a child does not have access to a computer/laptop and/or the internet, the school will do all it can to support children and will provide paper packs of learning. Where funding can be accessed, remote devices (eg, laptops) and/or 4G connections will be sought, particularly for disadvantaged children.  Parents will be reminded to make the school aware of any barriers to accessing remote learning. Paper copies will still be available.

The staff have worked tirelessly in ensuring that if your child is self-isolating or if the children are learning from home, that their learning continues.
