Online and offline options on the table for year 10 & 12 face-to-face support

Government policy Coronavirus
Secondary schools are considering both online and offline options for how they will provide “face-to-face contact” for year 10 and 12 students from June 1.

Alongside its plans to potentially re-open primary schools from June 1, the government has asked secondary schools to “offer some face-to-face support to supplement the remote education of year 10 and year 12 students who are due to take key exams next year”.

Department for Education (DfE) guidance, published on May 11, asks schools to “limit attendance” of this cohort at any one time and to keep students in small groups – implying that ministers have physical attendance at school in mind.

However, schools are considering a number of approaches, most of which are centred around the idea of one-to-one sessions with teachers or small group teaching.
