    • Lauren Carter and Louise Peplow, teachers at Hitherfield Primary, talk about how they started remote learning in March 2020 using workbook packs uploaded onto the school website for children to download, with a few additional activities on the free trial version of SeeSaw. Moving to the paid version and using it fully has been a “really positive change”. It feels more manageable and accessible for the children, there has been more engagement and feedback from parents has also been positive.
