Using ICT to support learning and teaching
How learning can continue even though there may be disruption to schools due to adverse weather
Bad weather and other unexpected events may result in school closures which will cause some disruption to educational provision. If pupils have access to a phone, computer or tablet with internet access at home, then there are a lot of web sites with resources and activities which can support learning. Some are general in nature however many are tailored to the curriculum offered in school.
Children have all been given their personalised login details for Glow, Big Maths, and in many cases, IDL or Nessy. Class teachers may use Microsoft Teams (accessed through Glow) to provide assignments for their pupils. Please see our Digital Support section for more details of how to access Glow.
A number of sites will provide high quality, appropriate educational resources and activities. BBC, Channel 4 and Education Scotland websites provide very good materials for revision and learning. For learners of all ages the North Lanarkshire Education Computer Centre website has a number of links for different subjects. BBC Scotland’s Learning Scotland site provides an in-depth coverage of the Scottish curriculum and Channel 4 has their own informative learning site. Please see below.
