Hundreds of Lessons Taught Remotely
Every day during lockdown MCS pupils are taught the same subjects and the same topics as if they were following the curriculum in the school classroom.
Teachers are providing online learning for all academic subjects using a variety of techniques. In addition, many co-curricular activities are continuing through online technology.
Keep active!
The MCS Sports department have tweeted an inspiring set of exercise ideas.
Try to get some exercise and outdoor activity each day. Remember, however, to always follow government guidance on social distancing.
Learning Remotely
Keep up to date with your work
You should be spending enough time each day to follow the lessons and complete the work set. If you are having difficulties with the work, contact your teacher directly through e-mail. Your tutor will also be able to provide advice on how to work effectively at home.
