Please read the information below to find out more about our remote learning offer.
In the event of further disruption to learning, Learning without Limits Academy Trust and The Lancaster Academy are committed to continuing to deliver high quality education to our learners. Through the use of a variety of resources we will deliver a curriculum that is aligned with the Academy’s long term curriculum aims and will support progress through subjects during times when our learners are not able to be on site. Our blended approach will utilise the most up to date technology available to us, whilst at the same time providing work through more traditional means for those students with limited or no access to IT in their homes. This blended approach will ensure equitable access to resources and limit the potential negative impact of further periods educational disruption.
In line with the DfE guidance: Planning for remote education, The Lancaster Academy has prepared a document detailing what the academy is offering.
