What is <strong>Mayville</strong> <strong>Online</strong>?<br />

<strong>Mayville</strong> <strong>Online</strong> is an enriched ‘whole child’ learning programme, offering the <strong>Mayville</strong> High<br />

<strong>School</strong> experience in your home environment. Pupils access and complete assignments<br />

using Google Classroom, with remote access helping <strong>to</strong> overcome some of the barriers<br />

<strong>to</strong> education that might be presented by a traditional school experience.<br />

Our online tu<strong>to</strong>rs can provide a full curriculum programme of study, offering you everything you would<br />

expect from a school, plus a lot more flexibility in tailoring the education <strong>to</strong> the specific needs of the pupil.<br />

This flexibility can be of enormous benefit <strong>to</strong> pupils with outside commitments or special educational needs.<br />

Live lessons build positive connections between the teacher and pupil – this has been shown <strong>to</strong> improve<br />

academic achievement, social competencies and emotional wellbeing. The lessons remain available<br />

on the classroom after the initial 'broadcast', so that pupils who were unable <strong>to</strong> access it live can complete<br />

it independently, at a time that is convenient <strong>to</strong> them. Pupils can also choose <strong>to</strong> revisit lessons, in order<br />

<strong>to</strong> reinforce the learning.<br />

A holistic approach<br />

Our online teachers are all experienced classroom practitioners with Qualified Teacher Status. They provide<br />

a holistic approach <strong>to</strong> both your child’s learning and the pas<strong>to</strong>ral care essential in building confidence<br />

and self-esteem.<br />

• We provide a full curriculum of core subjects, working with our expert online teachers.<br />

• Our daily pupil updates will provide essential information regarding progress and development, whilst<br />

virtual ‘pupil review’ meetings will provide time <strong>to</strong> review and discuss your child’s development.<br />

• Termly reports will be provided <strong>to</strong> celebrate progress and consolidate assessment data.<br />

We can also offer:<br />

• For children studying for their GCSE exams, <strong>Mayville</strong> <strong>Online</strong> can offer specialist support and tu<strong>to</strong>ring outside<br />

the school day.<br />

<strong>Mayville</strong>‘s excellent pas<strong>to</strong>ral care<br />

At <strong>Mayville</strong>, we understand that the emotional support we provide is intrinsic <strong>to</strong> developing a young person’s<br />

self-confidence and wellbeing, which both directly impact their academic engagement. All pupils are assigned<br />

a tu<strong>to</strong>r who will meet with them regularly <strong>to</strong> discuss any concerns.<br />

Our most recent ISI inspection (January 2020) found that, 'The quality of the pupils’ personal development<br />

is excellent'. Our pas<strong>to</strong>ral programme will develop your child’s physical, mental and emotional wellbeing,<br />

so they reach their full potential and achieve their own personal best.
