Remote Learning Offer

27th January 2021 By annabowden

When children are required to be at home, and unable to attend school – the learning does not stop at Ox Close Primary.

Since October 2020, schools have been required by law to provide effective education to those children who are unable to access face to face teaching; Ox Close Primary has risen to the challenge.

Further information regarding our Remote Learning Offer can be found here:

Remote Education Policy

If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to contact Miss Bowden, Head of School.

Huge well done to all of the children for being amazing this week – we have had great levels of engagement once again in the live lessons and the children in school are also working very hard.

Staff have been really impressed with all of the work that has been coming in – keep up the hard work.

That goes to the parents/carers – huge well done to you as well as I know it is not easy juggling everything.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend,
