Online learning is the preference, but paper-based learning will be available, if necessary. The school follows a remote learning flowchart to ensure that teachers, parents and pupils have equitable provision.
  The Online learning offer matches the curriculum taught in school as closely as possible. Adaptations are made in some subjects, for example, practical lessons that require resources would be demonstrated online to facilitate home learning.
