Thank you to all parents who completed our home learning survey. We have used your responses to develop our Remote Learning Plan. We had really hoped that this would not happen but this is the plan in place due to the current school closure.

Remote Learning Plan

We will be using Microsoft Teams for teaching during bubble or school closures, as well as providing support for those families with difficulties accessing digital technology. Laptops and tablets are available for children to borrow where they have no access to a device or a sharing a device, please email general@johnruskin.southwark.sch.uk to request a device. Sim cards with free data are also available, again please email the general email to request one. We will continue to provide hard copies for those children who are unable to access TEAMs.

You should all have received a letter with details of your child’s log in details and what English and maths group they are in so you can help them complete the correct assignment as well as a laminated card with their login details. Please contact the school if you have not received this information

Class and year group emails have also been set up so that parents can request further information about an assignment if they wish. Any technical difficulties with using Teams can also be addressed by email. Please note that any emails will only be checked by teachers in the event of a bubble or whole school closure.

Unfortunately, due to the ongoing restrictions, we were not able to hold the parents workshops that we were planning. We have created a series of video tutorials on how you use TEAMs and also an illustrated document with the instructions.
