Following Friday’s National school closure in a strategic decision to socially distance all our community and stem the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) we will be opening from Monday 23rd March for those children of identified Key workers only. Can I please remind you that if you are not on our agreed list of keyworkers and were spoken to on Friday DO NOT send your child to School, DO NOT attend and expect to leave your child in school – staff have been instructed to turn away anyone not on the agreed register. This is done in the interest of protecting both staff and children. The Government has made it clear every child who can stay safely at home should, to limit the chance of the virus spreading. For key workers the advice remains the same, the government has asked parents to keep their children at home, wherever possible, and asked schools to remain open only for those children who absolutely need to attend.
Only families with an offer of a place should attend the school.
It is important to underline that schools remain a safe place for children and staff. Therefore, the fewer children making the journey to school, and the fewer children in educational settings, the lower the risk that the virus can spread and infect vulnerable individuals in our wider community.
