HOW WILL THE SCHOOL OPERATE DURING THIS REMOTE LEARNING PHASE? MODIFIED SCHOOL TIMETABLE In Term 2, our daily timetable has been adjusted to cater for you are you work online at home; particularly regarding the need for breaks from the screen. Each period will be scheduled as per your student timetables, but we have adjusted the times, to reduce period lengths to 50 minutes each, and increase break times, where we encourage you to stretch and move away from your screens.
* See page 8 for wellbeing challenges Note: all periods are 50 minutes
Stretch breaks – move away from computers; recommended tech-free time Key Points: • If you have real-time lessons scheduled, such as conferencing or live chats, these will occur in the
normal allocated period (at the adjusted time) • Your teachers will advise you via the Learning Management System if and when these sessions are
occurring. • Your teachers will be using the timetabled lessons to check in with you, answer any questions, and
provide feedback on student work. • Your surveys told us that many of you enjoy the flexibility of learning which subject you choose,
when you choose to. You still have the flexibility and independence to choose to complete your lessons in your own time, as long as you get your set work done and complete tasks required by your teachers.
• You should, however, check their Learning Management System for teacher instructions and engage in any live sessions scheduled.

WHAT WILL MY LEARNING LOOK LIKE? Your learning will be a combination of:
• Logging into your learning management system (LMS) to access: o Reading material o Online questions o Videos o Worksheets
• Activities to complete offline, such as practical activities, creative activities or writing tasks
• Participating in online discussion, Q&A and answering set questions through your LMS
• Video conferencing if your teacher schedules this – generally once per 4-5 lessons – but this is up to your teacher’s discretion. Some teachers may conference more than others.
• Watch our vide summary: Learning in Term 2 @ PHHS
• Visit our Learning From Home website for all the relevant info.
WHAT WILL I NEED TO SUBMIT? • Your teachers will tell you what you need to submit via upload.

HOW SHOULD I ORGANISE MY DAY?
OUR EXPECTATIONS OF YOU – ENGAGEMENT AND ATTENDANCE
• Before the commencement of lessons or at the start of the day teachers will check-in with each class on the Learning Management Platform, with clear lesson instructions or directions about the completion of work.
• You need to check in each lesson, following the teacher’s instructions to indicate your attendance via the LMS.
• Teachers will be keeping records about engagement in learning/attendance online through the Learning Management System and the completion of assigned work and tasks. Attendance will be recorded based on learning engagement and your parents contacted if you’re not engaging.
For Years 7-10, teachers will keep records on student engagement in each lesson. Students not seen engaging in lessons regularly will be recorded on SENTRAL. Teachers will contact parents if lack of engagement continues to occur. Appropriate N-Warning notifications may be issued to students in Year 10 for lack of engagement in lessons.
In Years 11-12 teachers will keep records of attendance in every lesson. Students seen not engaging in learning sessions will have this recorded on SENTRAL. Teachers will contact individual students and their parents if this becomes a pattern of lack of engagement in lessons and failure to meet the course outcomes in any topic or unit of work and may issue the appropriate N-Warning notifications.
7
VIDEO CONFERENCING Teachers will use Department of Education-approved video conferencing platforms to conduct any video conferencing.
These platforms include:
• Microsoft Teams (through Office 365 in the student portal)
• Zoom through the NSW Department of Education
• Adobe Connect
• CANVAS
To participate in video conferencing, you must be appropriately dressed and appropriately behaved. No pyjamas!
The expectations are that you will:
• be polite and respectful
• engage in conferencing in a location appropriate for schooling
• not make inappropriate comments
• keep to the topic of discussion on schoolwork and nothing else
• turn off your audio until requested to turn it on
• participate actively
• chat responsibly.
Video conferences will typically last 15-20 minutes and teachers will use them to:
• check in with you
• check your understanding
• explain any key cocepts
• answer any questions

HOW CAN YOU MAKE THE MOST OF LEARNING FROM HOME? • Check your DoE email through the student portal for daily information; • Log on each day ready for your timetabled lessons, dressed appropriately after a proper breakfast; • Follow your timetable to be organised, ready to learn and interact with their teachers at the time on
the adjusted timetable; • Take the initiative with learning – it’s up to you to make the most of it; • Complete tasks honestly without plagiarising; • Do your best work; • Meet timelines and deadlines; • Communicate proactively with your teachers if you cannot meet deadlines or require additional
support.
