19.04.2022 – Fasting during Ramadan

Dear Parent/Carer,

The school recognises the importance of the holy month of Ramadan to our Muslim families.

Parents/carers must inform the school in writing if their child is going to participate in fasting. This is important so that staff can monitor children who are fasting in case they become unwell and make sure they do not take part in strenuous activity.

If there are concerns about any pupils who are fasting, the school has an overriding safeguarding duty and will apply judgement and common sense on a case-by-case basis.

If you would like to discuss any concerns, please call the school office and ask for a member of the Pastoral Care Team.

Yours sincerely,
Julie D’Abreu
Headteacher
