Pulteney@Home Virtual Learning Program
Pulteney Grammar School provides an innovative model of schooling that enables our school to move with your needs. While our campus continues to operate as usual, Pulteney@Home gives students and teachers access to the best possible mix of online tools matched by onsite support services to allow students’ learning to continue uninterrupted.
We understand that life can be unpredictable and at times you may need a temporary virtual learning platform from time to time. Whatever the reason, our online learning platform is the same as in our physical classrooms. If the need arises, students will still have access to the same high-calibre teaching staff and resources.

Student Wellbeing
Routine
Establish a virtual learning routine from day one using the timetable/schedule provided to set regular hours of school. It helps to wear something identifiable as part of the school uniform.
Health
Our Pulteney@Home student timetables include regular breaks for activity, eating and drinking. It’s important to encourage students to get up and move around during breaks.
Focus
Your home can be a place of ongoing homelife activity. It’s important to find a consistent and quiet place where students can focus on their lessons with minimal distractions.
Questions
If you feel that your child does not understand something or has questions, please encourage them to interact as they would in the classroom by asking their teacher and classmates online.
Connections
Social interaction is always important. With your guidance, encourage your child to connect over the phone, text messaging, social media and other opportunities to continue contact.
