Supporting Home Learning during absences and school closure

Dear Parents / Guardians,

In response to the outbreak of Coronavirus we are making preparations for children to access learning from home. We have compiled a timetable of activities which can support learning at home alongside some additional activities should you wish to complete these.

Your child should already have personal logins for the following online resources, which will supplement further their learning at home*:

MyMaths (Maths activities) – https://www.mymaths.co.uk/

Times Tables Rock stars (times table practice) – https://ttrockstars.com/

Purple Mash (a range of curriculum resources: coding, creative writing (topic-based) opportunities, History, Geography, Science) – https://www.purplemash.com/login/

Spag.com (English: spelling, punctuation and grammar activities) – https://www.spag.com/#scrollto

*Class teachers may also further supplement these resources, according to the individual needs of children in their classes.

A suggested timetable is on the link above, with further assistance with accessing resources to facilitate activities.

Please also see a topic grid for your child’s Key Stage – this can be used for ideas to facilitate activities linked to the Foundation Subjects.

Children will be provided with an exercise book to complete any activities, tasks or writing.

Active learn Primary

The government have been working alongside teachers and other educational professionals to develop an online resource that provides lessons for children from Reception up to Year 10. Having looked at this, we feel it will be very beneficial in supporting the children’s home learning as it has help videos, quizzes and worksheets, as well as following a teaching sequence to support progression in skills. 

Please see the link to access all the lessons and resources, as well as further information for parents and pupils:
