During lockdown, we issued parents and carers with the Midlothian Promise for the Delivery of Remote Learning. Through that, we aimed to achieve a shared understanding between home and school of the remote learning approach and the respective roles and responsibilities of all involved, while recognising that there would be local school by school differences in approaches.
We now wish to capture feedback on this period, and the positives which can be retained and developed now that most children and young people will be making a return to school in the near future.
