Coronavirus (COVID-19) - Information for Parents/Carers

From 15th June, the School has gradually been accepting more children across all year groups. The School has the capacity to do so as the proportion of returning children is low. We now have nine bubbles operating and are still accepting requests from parents for their children to return. You must notify the school well in advance of your child attending and email us to confirm you have read and accept the Home School Agreement.

For families eligible for free school meals, please refer to this update (07/04/20) for details of how the School is implementing the national voucher scheme. If you child returns to school and has a school meal, you will no longer receive vouchers. If you provide a packed lunch from home, you will continue to receive weekly vouchers.

The School already subscribes to a number of resources to promote Home Learning. Using Google Classroom, teachers are supporting children's learning from home. Login details for both Google Classroom and other home learning resources have been sent to parents/carers by ParentMail and links can be found on the Home Learning page.
