19.3.2020 Update

19/3/2020

 
Re: Coronavirus update – school closure to most pupils
​

Following on from my last update, I’m now writing to let you know that we have now been instructed to close the school to almost all children after this Friday until further notice.

As advised by the government, we will do all we can to stay open for the children of key workers (e.g. NHS staff, police, others in frontline services) and children with certain needs. We are waiting for the government to publish more information on what this means, but it would help us in the meantime if you could let us know if you think your child may fall into one of these categories and whether this affects both or one parent and you would like to send them to school during this time:
  • NHS worker
  • Delivery driver of essential goods – food/key resources such as medical products etc. (Please specify this and the company you work for)
  • Social Care
  • Fire Service
  • Police
  • Children with an allocated social worker
Children with an EHC Plan will also be invited to continue to attend school during this period.

Please contact the school by telephone to inform us if your child falls into one of these categories and you intend to send them into school during this period by 3.30pm today at the latest.

We’ll be in touch again as soon as we are sure who this does apply to.

All other children will need to stay at home, so we ask that you do not send your child into school from Monday onwards.

Please note that this is a national closure – as you may have heard in the news – so while it is a challenging situation, we are not alone. We’ll re-open fully as soon as we can and will let you know when this is as soon as we know.

What we’ll continue doing while your child is at home

Your child’s learning is of course important to us, so we’ll continue to help your child to learn. Separate information will follow regarding how you can support your child with learning at home.

If your child usually receives free school meals we will also be in touch with more information about how we can continue to provide this, with support from a scheme that the government has just announced.

Information about whether or not breakfast and after school clubs will open, will also be sent out in due course.
This is as much as we know right now and we appreciate your continued patience with us as we deal with this ever-changing situation. We understand that this latest news will have an impact on you and your family and it’s far from ideal, but we’ll continue to keep in touch with any updates as the situation develops.

Remember: if you or your child feels ill and you want to know what to do next, please use NHS 111 online.

Thank you again for your continued support, and we will be in touch with more information when we can.
Best wishes

Claire
Miss Claire Britnell
Executive Headteacher
