Introduction to Home Learning

Due to the Academy closure we have made arrangements to ensure that programmes of work and student learning can be undertaken from home. On this homepage you will find an introduction to our home learning curriculum with a supportive video to guide you through these changes.

On our Resources Page you will find links to all the useful online websites that we may use to support our Home Learning Curriculum.

Google Classroom Guidance

All learning tasks and links for live lessons will be set on Google Classroom. All students have been given a login for Google Classroom and information on how to access it. For guidance on how to use google classroom please click here. You can find Google Classroom by using the link on the resources page and the button on each year group page.

There are supportive videos on each year group page to support with using Google Classroom.

The work to be completed will then be accessible on the google classroom for each subject and it is via this online platform that work is to be submitted back to teachers for feedback where requested.

If you/your child feel the work set is taking considerably longer than a typical lesson (1 hour) we advise you to contact the relevant member of staff who is setting the work, by addressing an email for their attention to parentenquiries@hundredofhooacademy.org.uk.

If you are unable to access any of the information you need to keep working then please review the link here and if this does not resolve the issue please contact us on parentenquiries@hundredofhooacademy.org.uk.
