As we start term 3, this is a new time in education for all of us &#8211; to learn via Distance Learning. To ensure continuity of learning, VIPS will provide a well-structured teaching and learning program to be delivered via Distance Learning. During this period, students will access instructional material and learning activities from home via their Class Dojo or Google Classroom platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We encourage parents to please review the VIPS Distance Learning (VDL) guidelines to ensure that everyone at home, especially parents and students, is ready to engage and succeed in Distance Learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kindly note that teachers and administrators will make themselves available for questions and support as we all journey through this process together. Our primary goal at this time is to ensure students can continue their education via distance learning and be ready to continue our learning journey when we return to our campus.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Should you have any questions, feel free to contact us accordingly (<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1TRQplZ67dxVuJaUb6HM7gk27ty0iqJ9vtcyPAKOQmOM\/edit?ts=5ec1052b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from page 20 in this document<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kind Regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2550\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2550\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2550\" src=\"https:\/\/virginiaschool.ae\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Daniel-Bokelman-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.virginiaschool.ae\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Daniel-Bokelman-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.virginiaschool.ae\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Daniel-Bokelman-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.virginiaschool.ae\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Daniel-Bokelman-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.virginiaschool.ae\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Daniel-Bokelman.jpg 1724w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2550\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Mr. DANIEL BOKELMAN<\/strong><br \/>EXECUTIVE PRINCIPAL <\/p>\n<p><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear VIPS Families, On behalf of the VIPS learning community, welcome back from Spring Break.
