Remote Learning at St Mary's
The temporary provisions in the Coronavirus Act 2020 expired on 24 March 2022. As a result the Remote Education (England) Temporary Continuity (No.2) direction no longer has effect.
Remote education will only ever be considered as a short-term measure and as a last resort where in person attendance is not possible.
In Year R-6, any home learning will be via Db Primary . If children are absent due to illness, they are not expected to do home learning.

DB Primary
DB Primary is also used for setting homework each week. Homework is set on Fridays and needs to be completed/uploaded by 6pm the following Wednesday in order to provide the teacher sufficient time to review and mark work.
