Our ambition is to clarify the five tasks that pupils should, as a minimum, carry out every day. These tasks should become habits of learning for every pupil at Blackwater.
The impact of this will be that pupils develop a sense of routine; the habit of practising and become agile in core skills. To make them accessible for all, most of these require online access and basic resources.
Do each of these daily tasks at least once every day. Teachers will monitor how often pupils login to the online tools and will be available via Seesaw to offer advice, encouragement and feedback between the hours of 9am-3pm.
