We have a range of online learning platforms available for your child to use at home. Teachers are able to set and monitor work, which will be aligned to the National Curriculum and your child’s stage of learning. Most of these platforms are able to be accessed on tablet devices as well as laptops and desktop PCs. All of these learning platforms are available to use free of charge. Many work best through the Google Chrome browser.
