Home Learning
Home Learning
At Broomhill Infant School we believe that purposeful, relevant home learning can play a valuable part in a child’s education. We also feel strongly that children should have the opportunity to play, socialise and relax. Home learning is designed to support and reinforce learning taking place in school. As staff, we give careful consideration to making home learning suitable and well balanced across school.
Please view our Remote Learning Policy here.
Google Classroom
We have created a Google Classroom exclusively for each class to set home learning tasks for parents/carers and their child to access at home. During the national lockdown, there are classed based Google Meets each morning at 9.15am.
To sign in and access the free service ‘Google Classroom’ (https://classroom.google.com/), pupils use their own individual Google account created by school - parents/carers should have received a letter with these details.
If you encounter any difficulties accessing Google Classroom, please use the following guides for support:
Alternatively, please contact school via email at shawley@broomhill.sheffield.sch.uk for further assistance.
