Education from Home

At The Cornerstone Academy Trust our aim is to ensure that children are always able to access and engage in a meaningful education both in school and at home. This site is a resource for information and guidance about how to support your child at home. This may be both during normal schooling but also if they have to be at home for a period of time due to illness or recovery. For example, if they have broken their leg but are feeling well enough to continue their learning. This is also the best support, should there ever be another period of national lockdown.

We understand that focused learning whilst at home can be a challenge and you may be accessing these online learning tools for the first time, our help guides and video tutorials are available to help you and your children to navigate the learning tools successfully.

Our approach encompasses:

• Learning platform approach with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams
• Access everything your child does in school using the OneNote Class Notebooks
• Assignments to share work back and forth
• Range of online activities through programmes such as Purple Mash, Accelerated Maths and Literacy Planet, to name a few.
