What does the remote provision for your kids look like?

[ProvisonalPaulina]

Even in our own family we have a huge spread of what's on offer for the kids and I'm curious what it looks like for everyone else.

We have:
YR4 private school - full live zoom schedule with the teacher teaching the key worker kids in person simultaneously from the classroom. All specialist teachers are live as well.

Nursery attached to private school- full sessions in person

YR 11 state school: a few prerecorded slide decks and one live zoom fortnightly.

YR4 private school. Starting from Thursday the same as you. A full TEAMS online schedule with a work pack that we need to pick up from school if we can

Y7- state school. Full timetable of live online lessons via teams.

Y12- Independent Specialist ASD School. Choice of attending or staying at home. At home provision is a mix of self study of set work and online teams live lessons. Additional provisions being provided in person and remotely according to needs of child.

YR6 Private.

Today just core subjects on zoom with all work uploaded onto Google classroom by 8am this morning.

From tomorrow full timetable.

The school never stopped putting work on classroom in the Autumn term in case pupils had to isolate etc. So they have just carried on.

They run PE lessons via Zoom, form time quizzes where all the children can see each other and be silly.

Also there is a TA on each zoom call too with the teacher.

Love it. Couldn't ask for more.

YR8 also Private. On Teams all day full timetable exactly as it was last summer.

Yr 2 state school.
Teacher has this lunchtime confirmed activity plan which will utilise Classdojo app which school uses as a messaging app and to set ad-hoc activities set during school holidays:
AM - 1 x daily intro video from Class teacher, 1x English and 1 x maths activity
PM - 1x topic work activity (geography, history, science, art, RE) and 1 x story video from teacher.
Activities are either interactive worksheets to complete within the app, or done with pencil/ paper and a picture or video uploaded in response. All work will be marked and commented on within 24 hours.
Teacher is available via message option on dojo between 8-4:30. But from experience she is very quick to respond to messages sent at any time, including evenings or weekends.

Full Google classroom/meet with the teacher online all day. Paused for lunch and an exercise video for PE. It sounds great and dd is enthralled.

Yr 8, a mix of teams meetings and work set, with full timetable
yr 9, different school, but similar. Mostly teams meetings./

much better than last lockdown which was just work set and no teaching

state schools btw

One secondary, one primary child. Nothing from either school yet but we’ve been told they’ll be in touch later this week.

Yr7 state secondary has full timetable on Google classroom. I'm quite impressed so far. Have yet to hear from dd school as she wasn't due to go back until tomorrow anyway.

This lockdown seems better across the board with more live teaching.

Y6 state, brilliant this time round, timetabled lessons on Google classroom both with videos of teacher, practice and live teacher feedback. A world different from last time. Also social activities, really pleased!

Year 5 state school, timetable on Teams. Live lessons for core subjects every morning and some pre recorded/ TT rockstars on an afternoon.

Year 6 private. Full online zoom lessons with specialist teachers including the most boring science lesson of all time I can currently hear

Year 10 & 13 state. Full online teams timetable including registration at 8.30 and online Tests and assessments. Strict instructions all cameras on. Sitting in a suitable place, not a bed and dressed appropriately to learn. They’re taking no rubbish!

Reception state school- 3 zoom lessons a day with the teacher from her house, tAs are in school with key worker children, 3 activities set a day and need to be submitted and marked daily. Think it's just about right, any more would be too much for my 4 year old.

Year 7 state - mix of live Google teams lessons and pre recorded sections with PowerPoints and videos.

Year 4 state - pre recorded lessons and PowerPoints but teacher/pupil live chat on to ask questions

Year 2 state - loads of worksheets that need printing. ASD child cannot access most of it so will just be doing our own thing again I guess.

3 1hr lessons.
Maths- prerecorded, external provider, with worksheet
English, prerecorded from external provider
Other subject- mixture of types depending on what subject it is that day.
Teacher contactable for feedback and questions via App from 8.30-4.30 Mon Fri
Work has to be evidenced through App each day, but can be done when you like on the day. Phone call if work not uploaded 2days in row.

This is according to letter sent today. Have no idea what it will actually look that. Aren't planning on 'live' lessons due to families needing flexibility (sharing devices etc).

The plan looks decent to me. Rather relieved about lessons not being live, our internet can get temperamental at times.

Y7 state school. We’ve got a full live schedule of the usual timetable via Google classrooms. They even have PE.

It’s very noisy downstairs right now though so I’m not sure what’s going on. He’s supposed to be in a maths lesson. It doesn’t sound like maths.

Year 2 independent:
Live form time daily followed by live Maths and English.
Full subject timetable with work set by each of the specialist teachers (French, Drama, Art, Music, Science etc).
All work set via app and we upload completed work for marking each day.
Teacher available on telephone or Teams between live lessons as necessary.
Music tuition via Teams for those who play an instrument.

Yr8 - five 45 min Teams lessons a day plus a 15 minute class chat/pastoral session every morning.

Year 8. Most lessons uploaded in paper format to the website, supposed to be supplemented with a Teams session for each lesson, which would be great if DS could log on. Worked fine in October when last used, now apparently the password is incorrect. All I can do is wait for a reply to an email 🙄

Y2 academy - currently fuck all.

We have given ds some work to do from some letts books and played some maths /spellings /phonics games.

I'm hoping something is up by tomorrow.

Y2 state primary.

Online daily class session at scheduled time. Private online sessions available by request.

School have provided work to home and some bits of equipment and we are to collect more work every couple of weeks.

Really well organised, planned and implemented.

Y7 and Y10 at the same state school- live Google classroom meets all day from 8:30.
They have both been engaged and as quiet as mice all day.
Staggered lunches (so teachers can accommodate those in school) has been a fucker for me though, trying to feed 4 people all with different lunch slots, grrr. Hot lunch I envisaged we'd all share has been knocked on the head.

Y7 - Full schedule of learning on Teams or online sites

Y5 - All usual subjects in worksheet form that I screenshot for him to fill in on Seesaw and upload, plus project which he's using Adobe Spark Video to create.
HT says they'll be moving to remote teaching soon so will be expecting Teams or similar.
At the moment everything gets uploaded to Seesaw and teacher checks and comments during the day.

Still waiting for school to advise, they have closed to everyone today to prepare
