Most students learning from home

Families are encouraged to keep their children at home wherever possible.

Guiding questions

Review the COVID-smart measures at school.
Use and adapt existing teaching and learning programs.
Where required, provide alternative learning activities for those impacted by restrictions (for example, incursions, choirs, school performances, sport and physical activities). Use DART virtual excursions, virtual events toolkit and COVID-safe advice.
Provide learning materials to students according to their context (for example via existing digital platform, mailout).
Establish clear protocols for students learning from home, including regular check-ins to clarify content and support wellbeing. Use the learning from infographics (learning environment checklist and remote learning guidelines).
Make adjustments and adapt learning activities to support the learning needs of all students.
Build in flexible options for students to demonstrate learning.
Consider NESA’s COVID-19 school-based assessment advice for Year 11 and 12.
Record evidence of student progress and achievement towards syllabus outcomes.
Plan for regular provision of feedback to students (even if formal assessment tasks have not taken place).
Modify the existing timetable or schedule to support student wellbeing and engagement with consideration of impact on families.
