If children are required to isolate at home 

In future, if children must learn from home due to isolation, we offer various options which they can make use of.  There are a number of resources on the site which are always free, two week free trials are available and school subscriptions are temporarily valid for pupils to use from home. In addition to this our sister sites, SpellingPlay and PhonicsPlayComics remain free.
