How will online learning work?

If you are in a year group that is self-isolating, then you will still be able to complete

your lessons. Your teachers will continue teaching you, but in a slightly different way.

You are expected to continue to engage with your learning and continue to follow

your school timetable.

Your teachers will be delivering your lessons at the same time as they are currently

timetabled, but your teachers will deliver the lessons on Microsoft Teams. You are

already a member of Microsoft teams for all your classes. You will have accessed

some of these for your blended learning.

Each of your teachers will send you an invitation for their subject lessons, which you

will need to accept. You will be sent a reminder 15 minutes before each lesson. This

will help you to remember to get ready for your lessons and log-on in time.

You will be able to see your teacher and their presentation, as well as being able to

ask (type) questions and queries about what you are learning, and get live feedback.

All lessons will be recorded and you need to make sure that your microphone is set

on mute and your camera is off when you log-on. Your teacher will share the

recording at the end of the lesson in your subject Team’s chat so that you can access

it again if you want to review any part of it.

You can log onto Microsoft Teams from a range of devices (e.g. laptop, computer,

tablet), including your mobile phone.

If you have any concerns about accessing your lessons, either because your don’t

have a suitable device, or because internet access is an issue, please contact Ms

Olschner by email ([email protected]) or telephone: 0117 377

2055.
