Creating an Effective Home Learning Environment

This video from the Education Endowment Fund gives you some good ideas to support your child with daily routines during school closures

Here are some top tips for helping your child with learning at home:

Routine:

Try to give your child a routine, a visual timetable can help with this.

Reward:

Your child may complete their work more quickly at home – reward them with time off to do an activity they enjoy.

Independence:

Try to encourage your child to come up with their own solutions or try things first.

Go easy on yourself:

Do what you can – everyone is different and home learning isn’t a ‘one size fits all’. Some children may be able to complete all of the tasks set, whilst others may only be able to complete just one or two. The most important thing is for you to ensure that your family stay healthy and happy.
