Upper Wharfedale School is providing remote learning for all years groups, following the normal timetable which your student would follow in school.
An online platform called Office 365 is used by UWS and will be your main point of contact with teaching staff while remote learning is taking place. The platform will also continue to be in use when all students return to school, as it was prior to the pandemic. For this reason, all remote learning can be accessed from the first day of any student having to self-isolate or in the event of full or partial closure.
The full curriculum, as found on our school website, will be followed in the event of students learning remotely, and all students will be provided with the same amount of learning hours as they would receive in school.
