Distance Learning

DISTANCE LEARNING

At Cefn Saeson we strive to create high quality learning experiences that engage and excite our pupils. Whilst we are delighted to have our pupils back in school, we understand that some of our pupils may be self-isolating at certain times. If your child is isolating, we recommend that they follow their daily timetable and access the class work via Teams. They can also choose tasks from the Learning Menu for each AoLE (this can be found on the school website and also on their year group and class Team). Additional work is also provided on the distance learning programme below. To access and submit the Teacher led resources pupils will need to log on to Teams via Hwb (pupils have been shown how to do this) or they can email completed work back to their subject teachers.
