Are the schools in England back full time ?
Depends entirely on the school. 4 primary schools in my town, one is open to 2 days per year group, 1 not open yet at all, one only open to keyworker children and one is doing part time morning or afternoon for the selected year groups, with an hour in between so classrooms can be deep cleaned.
Our school has been brilliant with home learning, weekly newsletters, weekly contact with teachers, weekly work set both online and tasks to cater for those without internet access. Videos and pictures have to be sent to teachers each week so they can see what work is being completed and then alter the learning for each child. Home deliveries of workbooks and reading books.
My year 1 child has been given some year 2 work in both maths and english because they've seen from videos and photos he needs moving on. They won't be teaching the curriculum in my childs school when it opens, that's one of the reasons i would rather have him at home because i know he would become really bored doing the tasks in school, he just doesn't suit that style of learning, he needs to be challenged constantly. Home learning really suits him, i feel really grateful that the school's are not fining parents keeping their children at home and that they've given parents the option. I do feel for those children who don't suit home learning in years 2-5 though, i feel like it should be on an all or nothing basis personally.
I know some parents are really struggling mentally and their children would benefit from being back but don't have the option because their child isnt in one of the listed years.
Our school has said it wont open for years 2-6 this academic year, so those parents won't even have a choice.
