Remote Learning

Remote Learning

 ‘Remote education’ is used to describe situations where pupils are being taught remotely in their own homes rather than at school in a classroom.

There is a need for remote learning when a pupil is isolating at home but who is not ill.

Live classrooms enable important interaction between teachers and pupils through, for example, questioning and stimulating and reflective discussion. These complex teaching skills in the classroom are not always easy to recreate in a remote environment, but where remote education recreates at least some aspects of this interactivity and intentional dialogue, teaching is likely to be more effective, support pupil motivation and lead to better progress.

At St Helen's, we believe that all children, whether learning in school or at home, should be given the opportunity to access the same high-quality provision.
