Work for Absent Pupils

The resources on this page are to be used to support any pupil who is not able to be in school and to supplement any work provided by their teacher. Work should be undertaken in line with the subjects missed during the absence.

The websites and work listed on this page are suitable for Years 7 – 11 as the websites offer differentiated levels. Students should use their own judgement as to their current level and hence the most appropriate task to complete.

Please keep a record of the work that you have completed to show to your relevant teachers upon your return to normal lessons.

English

Work for the week is uploaded centrally onto students' Google Classrooms and labelled Work for not in school (start date - end date), so that students can access the work they should complete if they are off school. Students should access this work, complete it and submit it to their teacher.
