Dear Parents / Carers

 

We have had to make some really difficult decisions this week. We have had to shut the school gates and will only remain open for the key workers who have no other option but to send their children to school. We are pleased that this list is currently manageable and ensures that we have the minimum number of staff in the building for everyone's safety.

 

I have been delighted by staff who have volunteered to work shifts for which I am very grateful. I am also really encouraged that key workers are only using us if they really need to as they appreciate the risks that we are all taking by being together.

 

Many thanks for all of your kind words and offers of support. There have been too many to respond to individually. Your child will have been given plenty of work to do and we are all determined to ensure that they make good progress. Our teachers will continue to stay in touch and support as much as we can remotely.

 

We are doing the best that we can in the circumstances. Take care and stay safe.

 

Kind regards

Les Milton
