    NATIONAL ACADEMY ONLINE LESSONS

    20 April 2020 (by admin)

    The GOVERNMENT has approved the NATIONAL ACADEMY online lessons for parents to access. What's it all about?

    From today, Monday 20 April, parents can access 180 lessons a week for every year group from Reception through to year 10, through a new online platform, Oak National Academy.

    The enterprise which has been set up by teachers and is funded by the Department of Education, will provide video lessons for students, with each lesson coming with a corresponding quiz and worksheet.

    Each lesson will last one hour and the portal will provide the equivalent of three hours of lessons a day for primary students and four hours for secondary.

    Announcing the launch on Saturday, Gavin Williamson (Education) said: ‘Next week many children should be going to school for the first time after a two week break. But these are not normal times and we’re asking you to stay at home. Thank you for all the sacrifices that you’ve had to make'.

    To access the Oak National Academy resources, head along to their official website, where resources went live this morning. From here, you can view lessons by subject and level, or you can follow their planned weekly schedule.

    Every little helps!
