On-site provision for children of critical workers and vulnerable pupils will continue for each year group until their return to classroom teaching. This provision will move to E and B block for the week commencing 8th March (not H block as previously notified.)
On the day immediately prior to your child’s scheduled return to school, he/she will be invited to attend school for a lateral flow test for Covid-19. Pupils will only be tested if you give consent. You can book an appointment for your child to be tested using the SchoolCloud system. You will receive a letter explaining how to do this.
Further information regarding the phased reopening of school can be found below.
