Remote Learning

Please see below some links to online learning websites, which you may like to visit. Individual resources cannot replace a school’s properly planned curriculum, and the resources in this list are not intended to do so. However, they may be useful for parents/carers in considering how you could support your children’s education at home.

Espresso: is an award-winning website with videos, games, and other resources designed to help your child learn. We use it at school to support different areas of learning:
