Lockdown Home Learning

During the January/February 2021 lockdown many children are learning from home with the support of the learning activities we are providing through Google Classroom and other educational platforms such as Times Table Rock Stars.

Every child has been provided with their unique log in details to access these and practised the necessary skills they need during lessons in the autumn term of 2020. More support on how to access and use Google Classroom can be found here: https://www.highfield-primary.trafford.sch.uk/curriculum/other-subjects/computing/google-classroom

The government has set out expectations that primary children receive 4 hours of learning each day. Below is a table to explain how these expectations are being met in Class  10. Further support on well being and additional learning opportunities can be found beneath the table.

The government have produced a children’s guide to coronavirus which aims to answer children’s questions about coronavirus, tell children how to stay safe and protect other people and how to help them make the best of their time at home.  This is available at the following link:
