During the national lockdowns, the children at HPA were provided with a range of home learning provision. All children initially accessed remote education through our school website before moving to using SeeSaw (our parent communication site). Please see attached sheet for further information regarding remote learning platforms at HPA:

In the last national lockdown (January 2021-March2021) our younger children (Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and 2) were able to access pre-recorded lessons through SeeSaw. It is our intention that if we are to return to home learning at any point in the future that Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will access live lessons through Microsoft Teams. At present, training is taking place to support teachers in this transition.
The children in KS2 initially started their remote education on Seesaw before moving to Microsoft Teams. In the last national lockdown (January 2021-March 2021) all KS2 were able to access live lessons.
Information was provided to parents to explain how to access Microsoft Teams and each child had their own log in to access their Remote Education Provision.
Here are example timetables for remote education provision (January 2021-March 2021):

During remote education provision, children in Year 1 – 6 were able to take part in social sessions with their class teacher and classmates. These sessions allowed opportunities for children to keep in touch and continue their friendships in a difficult time. The children had some important rules to follow and these are shown below:
