Home and Remote Learning Links

Paper packs of work - In the instance that a pupil is unable to access online learning and as if an academy we are unable to support with this, we will provide workbooks and paper copies of all home learning sequences and the supporting resources. Once again please email our Home Learning Desk in the first instance at: homelearning@barnsley-academy.org

PARENT/CARER TELEPHONE NUMBERS

Additional to arrangements that have been put in place, in the instance of a whole school lockdown staff at the school will make regular contact with all students via their school email address and also via telephone. The telephone number used will be the official parent/carer contact we have on our school computer system; therefore it is extremely important you keep this information up-to-date with the Academy so we can keep in touch with all students and check on their well-being as well as work progress.

If you require any technical support to access these sites or any of your work please click on this link:  homesupport@unitedlearningyorks.org.uk

Aspire Enrichment Programme

Aspire is a very important part of the Barnsley Academy experience, ensuring students have the opportunity to develop new skills, talents and character outside of the curriculum. We offer a variety of clubs including multiple sports, performing and creative arts, cooking, computing and technology. The timetable changes each term.​

Regular attendance to clubs and activities is necessary for student development both academically as well as emotionally and socially.  Please ensure that if your child has chosen to attend a club that they attend regularly. If they are unable to attend for a week, they should notify the staff member.
