Learning At Home
​
If your child is absent from school for a reason that is not sickness (eg transport strikes), they can access work through Wonde. Please follow this link to access the work.
​
You should also check other websites that we use like MyMaths, Times Tables Rock Stars, Accelerated Reader and Rising Stars. Not every year group uses all of these, your child will have brought a letter home with all of their login details.
​
If you have any further questions please contact enquiry@georgedixonprimary.bham.sch.uk
​
We have also compiled this big list of free resources that you can access at home in order to support your child's further learning.
​
While we are recommending these pages, channels and resources, we do not monitor them on a regular basis and therefore cannot guarantee what content is available on them - it is always the responsibility of the primary care giver to monitor children's use of the internet.
​
When working online, children will need adult supervision. You would not let your child play with strangers in real life, please do not let this happen online. There are resources to help you keep safe:
​
-
Childline - for support
-
UK Safer Internet Centre - to report and remove harmful online content
-
CEOP - for advice on making a report about online abuse
​
Other Resources
