Home Learning and the importance of keeping children safe online

School uses the home-learning app ‘Seesaw’ to communicate learning objectives, provide tutorials and present tasks.  Parents and children can log-in to submit work or send a message to the teacher.  Other websites that we guide children to use are:

• Phonics Play
• Read Theory
• Oxford Owls
• TT Rockstars
• Numberbots
