Remote Learning – Day 15 and 16

Posted on January 30, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

What a week it’s been with staff getting tired yet, the continual pursuit to do the best for our children whilst emphasising with the difficulties the parents have. The lateral flow tests began this week and the uptake has being quite low. As the weeks go by and the learning from remote systems and processes … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 13 and 14

Taking part in the webinars, reading the books about remote learning and the sharing of what we do – it’s all very important. Boris Johnson has now announced that schools are aiming to return on the 8th of March, if the science suggests it is safe. Difficult times as I’ve said so many times and … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 11 and 12

Days 11 and 12 of remote learning, sandwiching the weekend. You could always question whether there has been learning when it is remote or is it remote education and you hope some learning takes place? Friday was incredibly busy with some great achievements throughout the day. All a bit of a blur and by the … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 10

Posted on January 21, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

Lovely clear sky tonight with the stars shining through. Bitterly cold though but certainly make sure that you are awake. The last two days have been quite intensive with some letters, policies and ongoing bits of admin work to do. We heard today that schools will have two weeks notice prior to opening; although my … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 9

Posted on January 19, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

Two webinars/remote meetings today, both looking at and exploring remote learning. Is it remote learning or according to the one in the morning, is remote education a better term? The thinking behind that is we can’t guarantee that learning will take place but we can ensure that it is education. It’s quite an interesting point … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 8

Posted on January 18, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

When the school has more children in that the last seven days yet seems quieter… is this a reflection on how both staff and children have adapted and the remote, live learning and blended activities are becoming somewhat honed? Following a few threads on Twitter is would seem some more surprises are heading the way … Continue reading →

Remote Learning – Day 5

Fifth day back at school with remote learning. Out of interest I think I’ll count the school days since the start of it all on the 23 March. Any ideas? It’s been a really busy one. The day started looking over some work that we need to do so that we can let our parents … Continue reading →

Lockdown 3 – Remote Learning 4

Posted on January 13, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

Forth day of remote learning in this third lockdown completed. Since the announcement of lockdown number 3 just over a week ago, understandably, many have been working very hard to put in many cases, well planned and effective remote learning for the children. It has been great and extremely reassuring to see staff working with … Continue reading →

Work Smarter and Be Brave

Back at school for the first two days after the Christmas holidays – somewhat fortunate considering the lockdown that we weren’t due to return until Thursday, the 7th of January. It’s always brilliant to welcome the children back, to see staff and for those at home, remotely connecting – that positivity of togetherness. As the … Continue reading →

End of Break & Back to School

Posted on January 7, 2021 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

Children return to school tomorrow; some in person and some via remote means. The Christmas and New Year break is now over and so much has been and still needs to be done. The work that goes into organising what is needed for a return to school, and by return to school I mean those … Continue reading →
