Home School Learning

 

Welcome to the Home School Learning channel for Broadclyst School. I do sincerely hope that you will make full use of this facility with your child. HSL enables your child to continue with their school work whilst at home and also provides you with the opportunity of being directly involved with their learning too. Your child will now be able to have direct access to their ongoing schoolwork, learning resources, their organisational tools and their email directly from their home.

We all learn best when the learning situation is novel, interesting, highly motivational, and open-ended and related directly to real life. In such situations we are fully engaged, excited by the learning taking place, willing to ‘have a go’, able to apply knowledge and skill from different areas of endeavour and positive in our outlook. In fact we become successful learners. Children are no different!


As parents you play a crucial role in helping your child to learn. This help not only provides support for academic learning but goes far beyond it. This latter part is about the development of those particular personal qualities that ensure the child is better able to participate fully in their own living and learning.


The closer that parents and schools become in a genuine partnership the greater likelihood there is of children becoming self motivated learners with a high degree of self-esteem. These two particular factors empower children to be responsible and active participants in their own living and learning and able to understand and appreciate the mutual interdependence between themselves and those around them.
The Home School Learning channel continues to bring us together to support your child and to better ensure their continuing and progressive success.
