Remote Learning Provision- Online learning using Seesaw/Tapestry
At Ashurst we understand there may be times when we have to implement Remote Learning and we value the importance a quality education for all our children.
We understand it is critical to maintain our capability to provide remote education when it is not possible for some or all of their pupils to attend in person. We do this using our Remote Learning Provision and the guidance and support on this page.
The Remote Learning Provision uses the daily timetable below to give you a guide and structure for home learning. Work will be set on the Seesaw app/Tapestry for Early Years, which all parents have access to and this will used by the class teacher to communicate in setting activities and providing feedback.
Please also read the second page with advice and support, including further websites to support home learning. Please do not hesitate to contact us via the school office if you need any further support.
You can communicate with your child's class teacher via Seesaw/Tapestry.
Teachers will respond before school from 8:30am and after school finishes at 3:15pm.
Please note that teachers are in school teaching so they may only respond after 3:15pm.
Teachers will not respond after working hours.

Online Safety
Most people, including children, have been spending more time online, whether that is in the classroom or at home. This will be the case more than ever during the national lockdown. It is important to have regular conversations about staying safe online and to encourage children to speak to you if they come across something worrying online.
See the support for parents and carers to keep children and young people safe from online harm and the Support to stay safe online. These resources provide guidance to help parents and carers to keep children safe online. They will, amongst other things, support you to talk to your child about a range of online safety issues, set up home filtering in a child-friendly way and set up age-appropriate parental controls on digital devices.
