While pupils are at home, we want to make sure they continue to learn. It is important that they maintain a routine and take part in learning every day. If children are well enough, parents should contact school to inform the class teacher that they will require remote learning.

Teams

Children will be able to log into their class using Teams and access the work given to them by their teacher using the link below:

Each child has their own personal username and password to access Teams. Please keep this information safe and private. If your child is having problems logging into their Team, please contact their teacher or use the guide below.
