Blended Learning brochure

Kings’ School.

If your child is having to self isolate, please use the following guidelines to ensure they are able to continue learning whilst at home:

1. Inform the school of the need for your child to self-isolate

2. The school will inform your child’s teachers who will make contact via Show My Homework, within the next 36 hours.

3. Use the brochure to access on line learning for the subjects your child will be missing. On the first two days of absence, please choose activities and

tasks which are of interest and follow the outline of the school day. After that, the brochure will be used as an additional resource for learning.

4. Encourage your child to follow their school day. Work per subject should only take the hour that would have been available in class. If they are unable

to complete it in that time, please inform their teachers – this feedback will enable them to accommodate the needs of your child while they are

isolating.

5. If your child does not have their appropriate books with them at home, please contact the school and we will endeavour to get them to you.
