Remote Learning

Schools should only consider providing remote education to pupils in circumstances when in-person attendance is either not possible or contrary to government guidance.

This might include:

• Occasions when you decide that opening your school is either:
  • Not possible to do safely
  • Contradictory to guidance from local or central government
• Occasions when individual pupils, for a limited duration, are unable to physically attend school but are able to continue learning, for example because they have an infectious illness

This is set out in the DfE's guidance on providing remote education.
