Dear parents,

In preparations for the potential school closures following recent advice from the government, we have compiled this list of online learning resources intended to support directed and independent work activities in the event of learning having to take place at home.

It is important to note that teachers will use the school website at https://www.tattenhallpark.cheshire.sch.uk/ to provide structures for the school day before 9am every day (Logins should be in your child’s school reading diary. Please contact egarside@tattenhallpark.cheshire.sch.uk if you have any difficulties logging in).

This will include recommended time frames that activities should take place in order for teachers to be available to respond to any communications and receive submissions of work. Work activities can be taken from the Home Learning Work Grids (found on your child’s class page and sent home in paper form), open tasks or will be set using URL links to resource sites.

Any work that is completed and saved onsite such as MyMaths and PurpleMash do not need to be submitted through the school website however any other work can be submitted as a file such as Word or Power Point documents, photographs (useful for handwritten/hand produced work) or videos.

Here is a suggested timetable for the day:
