In line with best practice and following DfE guidance, Cann Bridge has a Home Education Policy to be applied in cases where children need to isolate or if local lockdown regulations require it.

Cann Bridge School prides itself on the learning opportunities we provide. In developing the Home Education Policy, we aimed to be creative and innovative while supporting our parents and children in the best way possible, ensuring that learning remains purposeful and holistic outside the school environment if pupils cannot access the school buildings.

The Home Education Policy is designed to ensure that pupils not in school have access to quality home learning, using both online and offline resources, as well as appropriate video link facilities. This will enable continued learning for children not in school, in line with the core values and content of the school curriculum.

To ensure that home learning is as effective as possible, we ensure regular contact between staff and families. This allows for ongoing assessment of pupil achievement and progress, as well as continuous support for parents and carers in respect of pupil and family wellbeing. Through this contact, the format of educational support is tailored to meet the needs of both the pupil and the family.
