REMOTE EDUCATION PROVISION: INFORMATION FOR PARENTS CAN BE FOUND HERE
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.
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 KS1 primary children receive 3 hours of learning each day. Currently there is no guidance for specific timings for Early Years. Below is a table with recommended expectations for Nursery. Further support on well being and additional learning opportunities can be found beneath the table.
