Remote Learning at Ward Jackson
If your child has been affected by COVID-19 and they need to work at home while they are waiting for the outcome of a test, are self-isolating or have tested positive for a test then school will provide a remote learning package that will enable them to continue their learning at home.
School use 2 main platforms for our remote learning:
- Tapestry for Early Years - https://tapestryjournal.com/
- SeeSaw for children in Year 1 to Year 6 - https://app.seesaw.me/#/login
These are online learning platforms that are used across the country and will hopefully minimise the impact of Covid-19 on your child's learning.
