Download our latest guidance from our trust.
We have all watched with concern as the incidence of COVID-19 steadily increases in the UK and around the world. We are keeping a close eye on the situation nationally, regionally and locally and we are in regular contact with our CEO and other schools in the trust. We are still open and will continue to be until we are advised otherwise.
The Department for Education and Public Health England have issued updated guidance for education settings on COVID-19. Following this update from the government, we would like to advise:
-
Staff, young people and children should stay at home if they are unwell with a new, continuous cough or a high temperature to avoid spreading infection to others.
-
If staff or children become unwell at school with a new continuous cough or a temperature, they will be sent home.
-
Anyone living with someone showing the symptoms should self-isolate for 14 days.
-
The Government still want schools to stay open.
-
We should avoid unnecessary social contact.
-
You only enter the school building if it is absolutely necessary and only through the main entrance to the school office. If your query can be managed by phone or online, then please use this form of communication.
As a school, we have been planning for the event of school closure. All children will initially receive a pack containing work put together by their teacher. We have also been putting plans in place for the children to be able to access learning through our website. Please click here or visit your child's class page through the Pupil Zone and Home Learning tab.
The safety of all staff and pupils is our main priority and we will act in the best interest to ensure this. If you feel you or your family are vulnerable and self isolation is the best course of action the school will support this. This applies for both staff and families within the community.
