Home Learning
We are committed to our vision of growing minds for learning, crafting skills for life and so we work hard to support pupils’ learning from home when they are not able to be in school. For Wednesday 1st February, we have provided home learning for each phase as pupils will not be in school due to industrial action by the NEU teachers' union. You can access the home learning information below.
We know learning at home is difficult to manage, and we want to do all that we can to support. Please do not hesitate to get in touch, either via the school office or the class email addresses.
If your child is vulnerable or you are a critical worker, you may be entitled to a space for your child during this closure. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss this.

Wellbeing
We know times are strange and this can take its toll on our mental health. Mind Charity have been sharing resources with us to support this. You can access them here.
A Suggested Daily Timetable
We strongly recommend that you commit to a sense of routine during these days and enable your child to complete the learning activities given; we all benefit from routine and structure and this can be particularly beneficial during unusual and concerning times such as these. We acknowledge that many parents will be working at home and the learning activities are designed to fit in with your own busy schedules.

During the home learning periods we will be communicating regularly with you. It is really important that you have access to Parent Mail, so please let us know if you need support with this. We also use Facebook as a support for parents and carers, adding home learning tips and tricks. We will have access to emails, so please do email any enquiries in. We will do our best to answer these promptly during the usual school opening hours.
Please do contact the school office should you have any questions or concerns. Urgent enquires can be made by phone (t: 01494 523218), but we ask that less urgent enquiries are submitted via email at office@ashhillprimary.co.uk. We love to hear from pupils too, so encourage them to write a message you can email to us.
