As you know, you will be required to work remotely for the foreseeable future.  The English department would like you to access the school Moodle English Language folder for detailed information about tasks that you should complete over the coming weeks.

In the Year 11 English Language folder there will be dated sub-folders that contain tasks/ activities/resources. These will be updated approximately every fortnight to enable you to work through tasks at the rate we would normally expect at this stage in the course.

You will also find an overview plan of what we intend to cover during the forthcoming weeks in the Year 11 Language folder too.

How to revise:

• Follow the tasks chronologically in the dated folders
• Make notes on development points so that you are clear that you know what you have done well and what you need to improve.

If school is closed for longer, then we’ll need to set some exam question tasks which you’ll need to submit so we can give feedback. For this we will use Moodle.

Your Moodle login is the same as your network login and once logged in, the tasks will be in the course called GCSE Religious Studies (NEW). If you’re using the Moodle app, the first time you log in you’ll need the web address qehs.net/moodle2/

If you need to communicate with your teacher use their school email [djones@qehs.net or ahedley@qehs.net]
