Improve Teacher Assessed Grades
5 - No Remote Lessons
It is extremely tough for students in schools that are not able to provide remote lessons. Parental support is even more crucial in such cases.
Online learning
There are many opportunities to learn online. Much of it is free, other services while not free can provide great value for money.
Online resources included fall into four categories: videos, podcasts, websites, and apps.
Individual students will have preferred resources and ways of working. Check out the different resources to see what works best.
They all enable students to acquire knowledge without traditional lessons and can be far more effective and enjoyable.
ASK FOR TEACHER RECOMMENDATIONS
Teachers are in the best position to recommend online resources that cover the syllabus. Also, ask friends in other schools or search Google.
