At Normanton Junior, we pride ourselves on the high-quality blended learning offer that we provide for our children to ensure their learning continues to progress, on the very rare occasion school is not open.
This information on this page intended to provide clarity and transparency to pupils and parents/carers about what to expect from blended learning in the case of any closures, or pupils having medical conditions meaning they cannot attend school. We are big believers in the power of EdTech, to not only provide opportunities for children now, but to prepare them for the future.
