Remote Education

At Woodlands, we know that attendance is crucial for pupils' success and wellbeing.  We sometimes use remote education as a last resort when a child cannot attend school, but also share learning links with parents, who may wish to support their childs' learning, at home.

Benefits:

• Keeps pupils on track.
• Maintains connection with teachers and peers.

Priority: Always ATTENDANCE.

When We Consider Remote Education

1. School Closures/Restrictions:

   • Used during events like COVID-19 when schools must close.
   • Aim to reopen schools quickly; remote education is a temporary measure.

2. Individual Cases:

   • For short-term absences due to illness, recovery from surgery, or injuries.
   • Includes special cases like SEND or mental health issues, evaluated individually.

Provision:

• Short-term solution to keep pupils engaged.
• Additional support for long-term medical conditions.

As a School we will endeavor to:

• Uses quality lessons and resources to support learning at home.
• Collaborate with parents to support learning.
• Loan devices to overcome digital barriers.
