What is the ICS Virtual School Experience like in Primary?

Our Primary students are engaged each day through learning activities set by their class Teacher and posted on our online learning platform. They communicate through online lessons, Microsoft Teams and other apps such as Showbie and Padlet. Students also meet in small groups with their Teacher.

Learning activities for Primary include:

• Unit of Inquiry
• Maths
• English (Reading, Writing, Grammar)
• Specialist lessons (Music, Languages, PE) Spanish and Drama
• PSPE Lessons from Ms Hayley

Teachers post videos each day to explain the different tasks. Students watch these videos and then complete any relevant activities set by the Teacher. Students then post their work each day on Seesaw for Teacher approval and feedback. Student attendance is taken daily.

See some examples of our lessons on the news section of our website.
