Blended Learning
A Blended Learning approach includes classroom learning and teaching combined with structured online learning. When your child is not required to attend school due to the rules around social distancing they should continue to complete work set by their subject teachers via Google Classroom. Teachers will upload resources/tasks for pupils to complete, pupils may be asked to upload completed work to Google Classroom or to bring it into school for marking.
