Providing remote education: guidance for schools - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Should the government instruct schools to close or where we have children required to stay at home and follow the guidance issued, Severne Primary School will set work through our online learning platform, BGfL 365. The work set will vary according to the age of the children but a plan will be provided alongside the work set. Please see below our Parents Information on remote learning.

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.
If the government instructs schools to close, all children would be required to stay at home and follow the guidance issued. We would then use BGfL 365 to set online work for pupils. The work set will vary according to the age of the children but a plan will be provided alongside the work set.
Where individual pupils are self-isolating, Teachers will set work using BGFL 365 and will follow the routines set for an entire closure.

Time frame

Teachers will set work using BGfl 365. All parents have received a parent guide on how to gain access to BGfL 365 and access the work for their child. Pupil log in details are in the front of the pupils reading diaries.
Teachers will provide a child friendly plan that outlines what the pupil will need to do as part of their home learning, with links to websites, Oak National Academy lessons, documents and PowerPoints that the pupils will need to access in order to complete the work.
This will be uploaded ready for the day after if the closure is announced before 12 noon, two days after if the announcement is made after 12 noon or the Monday should the closure have occurred on a Friday.

Online learning How long can I expect work set by the school to take my child each day?
The Curriculum Engagement and feedback |
Key Stage One pupils will receive a minimum of three hours work per day and Key Stage Two pupils will receive a minimum of four hours work per day. We will set four lessons work that follow the curriculum for the current term. However, some adaptations in some subjects may need to be made due to the practical resources that the pupils would require.
The four lessons that are set daily will include Reading/Phonics, Writing, Mathematics and another subject including RE, Science or a foundation subject.
Pupils will be expected to complete the work during the normal school hours and therefore, we ask parents to provide an appropriate working space and the resources needed to complete the work set.
Teachers will access the work completed after 3:05pm. Teachers will give feedback on the tasks completed and how to access the feedback is explained in the parent guide.
If a pupil has not accessed the online learning (pupils on the list as being able to complete online learning), the parent of the pupil will be contacted by a member of staff.
|
No access to technology |
Where eligible, children will be offered a device, including devices that enable an internet connection, provided by the Department for Education to complete their online learning. If a family has no access to online learning, we will provide home learning packs weekly that would need to be collected from school. The pupil would then bring their completed work back to school the following week when they are collecting their next pack.
|
Additional support for pupils with particular needs. |
All work set for pupils will be set at an appropriate level. Pupils who have an EHCP have been invited to attend school. The work set for SEND learners will include work linked to their individual targets set from the Birmingham Language and Literacy continuum assessments. Contact will be made weekly with the families of EHCP children who are not attending.
|
Trouble shooting |
If parents require assistance, they will be able to telephone the school or email enquiry@severne.bham.sch.uk and a member staff will talk them through how to access the work. |
We do recognise that the health and wellbeing of our pupils is paramount and we appreciate that the level of work that might be undertaken by a child will reflect the situation and circumstances at home. If you require any assistance or guidance throughout home learning, please do not hesitate to email the school and a member of staff will get back to you.
