For Nursery and Pre School Students:

As we continue to develop live online learning and teaching we have considered the learning experience and wellbeing of our youngest students. We will be offering continuous live teaching and learning provision where teaching staff are live all day with the children. Should you have any technical difficulties in accessing either of these please contact Ms. May (Colonna Campus) via infocolonna@stlouisschool.com  or Ms. Warren (Caviglia Campus) via info@stlouisschool.com

This will be represented by:

• Live whole group encounters with the teacher and teaching assistant.
• Guided learning in groups led by the teacher or teaching assistant in live sessions.  
• Independent exploratory learning that is scaffolded first by the teaching team in the whole class live sessions.
• Specialist lessons as routine.

The daily organisation and routine we will offer will be based on the standard school timetable. This focuses on continuous teaching from teachers and teaching assistants throughout the school day, to guarantee your child a familiar sense of belonging and continued education, as well as ensuring a workable routine for parents. The following sessions will form continuous live provision throughout the school day.

Morning Sessions:

9:30:            
Live whole class morning assembly meeting with both teachers and the teaching assistant.

9:30-10:30:

While families of our youngest children may choose to be flexible in their participation of some sessions it is crucial that the school is offering the child continuous live learning with the teaching team throughout the whole school day.
