Fielding
Primary School and Nursery
Thank you for your emails and responses to the survey, its been lovely to read your many positive and supportive messages.
3 days in to this new way of working, the majority of children have taken part in our online sessions and completed their learning.
In the survey you told us
Many of you like the structure of the day and appreciate the hard work and effort put in by Fielding staff.
Thank you for your many comments on what might make the learning at home better for your child. Some parents are concerned about the amount of work children are asked to complete. We are following the guidance produced by the Government on how much and what type of work should be set at each key stage. Please read Mr Dunmall's news article on this:
Yesterday the Government guidelines were updated to include an increased expectation on the amount of home learning children in years 3, 4, 5 & 6 should be completing from 3 hours per day to 4 hours, those in younger age groups should be aiming for 3 hours per day.
In most cases we aren't able to change the amount or type of learning set because we are following the expectations set for us by the Department for Education. There are however lots of things we can change and adapt.
We have asked our teachers to look at the learning they have planned through the eyes of a child.
This is what we plan to do for next week:
The class timetables are a guide for your child to help structure their day. We know that this might not fit with other commitments you as a family have. Learning can take place at any time of the day, we do ask that it is completed on the same day so that teachers are able to give relevant feedback and that pupils attend all live feedback sessions.
We know that repeated notifications popping up on teams are distracting and annoying, they also fill up the 'posts' timeline in a class team which make it difficult to find the information that is needed. Please remind your child that the 'posts' section is for questions about learning only.
Thank you for working with us on this and for sending in your feedback, we will continue to ask for feedback in different ways throughout this closure period, don't forget you can always send us an email.
