Learning Links
The tables below are full of useful websites to support Home Learning. They have been arranged into different curriculum areas to ease navigation and the logos are links to external websites that open in a separate window.
While all such links have been checked, Overton CE Primary accepts no responsibility for the content of external websites, or for any ongoing links that they may offer. Please make sure that you always check the websites before your child to ensure that the content is age appropriate.
Keeping your children safe online must always be of upmost importance.
