Homework and Remote Learning - Google Classroom
Our children have homework activities and tasks set in their blue homework books. When required, remote learning is through the Google Classroom. All pupils have their school email and password for their own login and are sent a join code to gain access to their classroom. If you have any difficulties, please contact the school office.
Online Safety
If you choose to supplement the school online offer with support from online companies, and in some cases individual tutors, it is extremely important to ensure the online support is from a reputable organisation/individual who can provide evidence that they are safe and can be trusted to have access to children.
Support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online includes:
- Internet matters - for support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online
- London Grid for Learning - for support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online
- Net-aware - for support for parents and careers from the NSPCC
- Parent info - for support for parents and carers to keep their children safe online
- Thinkuknow - for advice from the National Crime Agency to stay safe online
- UK Safer Internet Centre - advice for parents and carers
YouTube Moderation for Parents
Given the circumstance we find ourselves in, it's likely that children will spend more time on YouTube. Alan Mackenzie, Internet safety guru, has recorded a brand new video giving some tips on the few functions available within YouTube to help parents.

Online game finder for Parents to support their children - Game Finder:
Finding games for children which are appropriate for their age, which work on the devices the children use and the children will actually enjoy playing can be a minefield, particularly when parents are being bombarded with the 'but everyone else is playing this game' guilt trip. Game Finder is a new (free) service available from Taming Gaming which walks parents through various aspects, such as how old is your child? What devices do they have? What types of games do they like to play? And then gives a list of recommendations of suitable games. You can find Game Finder at https://www.taminggaming.com/gameFinder
