Dear Parents & Carers

As you may appreciate after confirmation of positive cases of Covid in the school, our staffing capacity has significantly reduced due to Track & Tracing. We have managed today but we know this is not sustainable.

As a result, I regret to say we are going to have to send the Year 8 students home from Friday 11 December until the end of term and provide Home Learning. (Last day in school today, Thursday 10 December 2020)

Work will be provided on Go4School for each student.

I know this is going to cause significant disruption, but having Risk Assessed the situation, I believe this is in the best interest of all our students to keep them safe but it is not a decision that has been taken lightly.

Thank you for your continued support.

Yvonne Watkins
Headteacher
