Remote education provision: information for parents
This information is intended to provide clarity and transparency to pupils and parents or carers about what to expect from remote education where national or local restrictions require entire cohorts (or bubbles) to remain at home.
For details of what to expect where individual pupils are self-
A pupil’s first day or two of being educated remotely might look different from our standard approach, while we take all necessary actions to prepare for a longer period of remote teaching.
If possible, the pupil will be issued a learning pack to take home. This will allow for them to access appropriate materials to continue learning straight away. The initial materials and resources contained within the packs will be generic, although the level of the work that is in the pack will be at the appropriate level for each individual student.
If the student has not been allocated a pack before isolating, the learning pack will be delivered to the family home as a matter of urgency.
Following the first few days of remote education, will my child be taught broadly the same curriculum as they would if they were in school?
In every case, the Head of Centre / AP and Home Engagement Manager will liaise with the family to discuss the individual learning needs of the pupil.
The remote learning offer will involve either on-
To support motivation and engagement, learning will be broken down into smaller ‘bite sized’ sections and activities. This may involve the teacher setting tasks and activities and the pupil being given time to carry these out, before re-
The curriculum that will be delivered will be dependent on the length of time that the pupil is scheduled to be away from school. If it for a ten day self-
The way in which remote learning is delivered may differ from classroom based lessons. This is because the nature of remote learning, in its different forms, will suit different teaching and learning strategies and techniques. These will be adjusted to best meet the needs of the unique circumstances that present and the learning needs of individual students.
In addition to remote learning, we aim is to make daily contact with pupils / families to support engagement and safeguarding. If any parent or pupil would like to discuss their child’s learning or remote educational offer, they should contact the Head of Centre / AP and Home Engagement Manager.
We expect that remote education (including remote teaching and independent work) will take pupils broadly the following number of hours each day:
Guidance highlights that pupils should have access at least five hours of learning per day whilst at home. Where appropriate, BAPA will make this available for pupils. We are aware however, that a number of our pupils find it challenging to engage in learning for long periods and this will be taken into account when planning the pupil’s remote learning offer. If the pupil and family feel that reducing the learning time would support engagement and learning, this should be discussed with the Head of Centre / AP and Home Engagement Manager.

When a pupil is using Teams to access learning, the teacher will use a number of different learning resources to support their learning. These will be selected to best meet the specific learning goals for the lesson and will be differentiated to support access to learning. Resources and materials used include:
As part of the on-
We recognise that some pupils may not have suitable online access at home. We take the following approaches to support those pupils to access remote education:
To best support individual pupils and families to access the style of learning that best meets their need, we will liaise with the pupil and family to discuss how remote learning can best be delivered to maximise learning.

We use a combination of the following approaches to teach pupils remotely:
As highlighted before, we will work with the pupil and family to agree the most effective way to engage with the pupil and deliver remote learning to them. This is likely to differ for each individual set of circumstances and may range from learning on-

Pupils who are learning at home are expected to fully engage in learning in the same way that they would do if they were in school. This is essential to allow the pupil to continue with their learning at an appropriate rate and to maintain a routine that will support progress.
Please see below a list of tips that will help the pupil to stay focused and to engage with learning:
Pupils are expected to fully engage with their remote learning as highlighted before. To support this, BAPA will monitor engagement with learning and the quality and quantity of work that is produced. This will be done in a number of ways that will be influenced by type of remote learning that is being delivered.
For on-
During the use of education packs, regular phone calls will be made to enquire about progress and to discuss any barriers to learning such as not understanding the learning or a lack of resources etc. As part of the conversations with the pupil and family, engagement and the rate of work being completed will be monitored.
If we have any concerns relating to engagement with learning or the completion of work, we will address them with the pupil in the first instance. If this does not result in improved engagement and work rate, liaison will take place with the parent / guardian to discuss any issues and look at ways to improve pupil engagement and work rate.
Feedback can take many forms and may not always mean extensive written comments for individual children. For example, whole-
The teacher will assess pupil work and deliver feedback on their learning. This will vary depending on the type of learning, the activities taking place and stage within the learning cycle.

The frequency of feedback will vary dependent on its nature. In all cases, assessment of completed work and written feedback will take place at least weekly.
We recognise that some pupils, for example some pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), may not be able to access remote education without support from adults at home. We acknowledge the difficulties this may place on families, and we will work with parents and carers to support those pupils in the following ways:
We are aware that every pupil is unique and has different abilities. As a result, they will learn at different rates. Teachers at BAPA are experienced at understanding the different needs of our pupils and will manage individual learning to support every pupil to make progress.
As highlighted before, conversation will take place with the pupil and the family to understand the best way to deliver remote learning for the individual. This may be through an on-

The Head of Centre / Home Engagement Manager will liaise with the family to discuss the individual learning needs of the pupil and will agree the time that the pupil will be engaged in learning every day.

Where possible, the topics followed and resources will mirror those used by pupils in school. This will support continuity and reduce the chances of the pupil falling behind.
