In this webinar we look at how schools have adapted their teaching practice to reflect teaching at distance and the needs of online learners. What has worked well for teachers and students? As schools make steps back into the physical environment and start to plan for the next academic year, we will explore how educators are managing the 'hybrid model' with part in-school and part remote learning.

How are our young people managing without peer to peer contact? What practical ideas can we implement to support them whilst they are in their home setting and what structures and support do we need to think about as we think about their return to school? Hear how educators from across the world are managing the mental and physical wellbeing of their students during and coming out of lockdown.

The second instalment of The Bettcast brought together a group of educators to explore ideas to keep students motivated and engaged with online learning. Topics discussed included; engagement in remote learning environments, strategies to engage students with SEND and guidance to support positive student behaviour.
