To help your child continue their educational journey at home, we highly recommend exploring the fantastic collection of curriculum-linked activities and ideas curated by the Wirral Family Toolbox.
Visiting their Websites to Support Children’s Learning at Home page is a wonderful way for parents to find trusted resources that boost confidence and make learning a fun, shared experience.
We understand the importance of supporting our pupils and families with resources beyond the classroom. On this page, you will find a selection of websites that provide additional educational support, resources, and guidance for parents and carers.
These websites cover a variety of topics, including homework help, online safety, mental health, and child development. We believe that by offering these resources, we can help families make the most of the support available and ensure that every child has the tools they need to succeed both in and out of school.
