Future-proof? Building digital capacity for a school ‘contingency plan’

Building digital capacity for a school ‘contingency plan’: Primary/EYFS/Special schools

Section 5 of the DfE guidance for the full opening of schools details how the DfE expects schools to have contingency plans in place for another outbreak of Covid-19, localised lockdowns, or thinking even further ahead, plans that could help cope with such as ‘snow days’ in the future. This think-tank event – aimed at supporting Primary/EYFS and Special Schools but open to all – brings together the Demonstrator Schools and Colleges of the North West region to build on their experiences of providing remote education, of learning and teaching through a lockdown and of supporting teachers, pupils and parents. Whatever provision you have put in place already, this think-tank will provide a chance to review, to reconsider, and if needs be, to revise. Speakers for this event will be; Hambleton Primary Academy with Ribblesdale High School and Highfurlong School: 
Lee Small, Assistant Headteacher 21st Century Learning and EdTech Development 
Michael Goldie, Class Teacher and EdTech Lead
Ensuring tech keeps things ticking over: Continuity of learning during covid-19 affected education

GST King’s Warrington:
