Message from Claire Kershaw, Director of Education
Message from Mrs Bratley 17 Mar 2020
I have put together a school coronavirus questions and answers document which I hope may be of use to you. Please be aware, that this only reflects current guidelines and is subject to change.
For children that are now self-isolating, work will be added to the class pages, but I ask for your patience in this as teachers are in class teaching. For those at home, can I suggest, children log in to www.twinkl.co.uk as they are offering a free month's trial and host lots of activities for children to do.
As mentioned in my questions and answers document, we are planning for home learning, should schools need to close.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support. Please do contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Take Care
Kind Regards
Tracey Bratley

Updated guidance for education settings on coronavirus (COVID-19)
Today, the Department for Education and Public Health England have issued updated guidance for education settings on COVID-19. This guidance will assist staff in addressing COVID-19 in educational settings. This includes childcare, schools, further and higher educational institutions.
· 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. Otherwise they should attend education or work as normal · if staff, young people or children become unwell on site with a new, continuous cough or a high temperature they should be sent home · clean and disinfect regularly touched objects and surfaces more often than usual using your standard cleaning products · supervise young children to ensure they wash their hands for 20 seconds more often than usual with soap and water or hand sanitiser and catch coughs and sneezes in tissues |

We are continuing to follow advice from Public Health England in respect of Coronavirus.
We have not been put on alert to close and at present we have no plans to close the school for any additional time.
We are working closely with the Local Authority and if we are advised differently by Public Health England and the Department for Education to close, we will inform parents and carers immediately.
