Attendance is mandatory for all pupils of compulsory school age but there are times when face to face teaching is not possible. During these instances. Our school will consider providing remote education to the children.

This might include:

• occasions when school leaders decide that it is not possible for their setting to open safely, or that opening would contradict guidance from local or central government

• occasions when individual children, for a limited duration, are unable to physically attend their school but are able to continue learning, for example children with an infectious illness

In these circumstances children will have access to remote education as soon as reasonably practicable, though in proportion to the length of absence and disruption to their learning. (See attached Remote Learning Policy and Protocols)

Our Remote Learning provision will be 4 hours a day for key stage 2 children.

Full details are on our remote Learning Policy and Protocols attached.

Provision for pupils with SEND

If children with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND) are not able to be in school and require remote education their teachers are best placed to know how the children’s needs can be most effectively met to ensure they continue to make progress.

We recognise that some children with SEND may not be able to access remote education without adult support. We will work collaboratively with families and put in place reasonable adjustments so that children with SEND can successfully access remote education. In this situation, decisions on how provision can be delivered will be informed by relevant considerations including the support families will require and types of services that the child can access remotely.
