The ACCS Blended Learning Guides are now available to download from our Website

School communities have shown an impressive willingness, flexibility and adaptability in their efforts to sustain teaching and learning for all students during lockdown periods. Many have transformed their online performance during the last academic year. School practices are sustained through collaborative engagement with others and access to meaningful supports at school level. Schools are advised, to adopt a school wide approach to the work, one which is coordinated, and which seeks to include all stakeholders.

Working in the world of technology presents many wonderful opportunities and many challenges for both learners and teachers. Navigating this vast world safely and securely is critical and Child Protection, Acceptable Use, Data Protection, and other relevant policies in schools will require ongoing review to ensure that all remain safe while engaged in this work.

These Guides aim to support Community and Comprehensive Schools as they continue to develop and implement strategies which support the best experience for all students while engaged in learning online. They are designed to promote a school wide response to the challenges in providing remote teaching and learning, providing useful and clear guidance and showcasing examples of best practice from our schools.
