This page has been set up as your guide to Remote Learning in the event of a bubble closure, school closure or lockdown. We all hope that we won’t need this – but better to be prepared!
Our digital platform for classes from Year 1 onward will be Microsoft Teams. Reception class will be using Evidence Me as this worked well during the Spring lock-down, but parents will still need access to Microsoft Teams as this is how live lessons will happen. To facilitate this, all children have been given an email address from Gateshead local authority – please let us know if you are having trouble logging in.
