We are continuing to keep you updated on the government's advice and the school's response to Coronavirus.  The update from the DfE (02 March 2020) stated, 'No school should close in response to a suspected (or confirmed) COVID-19 case unless directed to do so by Public Health England'.
 
The latest advice from the Government for the public is updated regularly and can be accessed via the links below:
 
 
Please note the information regarding 'Returning travellers' if you have travelled or plan to travel abroad.  
 
We would ask all families to update the school if, having taken the appropriate advice from the NHS, there are any concerns regarding their child's health.  Please would parents of any pupils who are advised to self-isolate for any reason contact Mrs Evans in the Welfare Office to update the school on their child's situation before their child returns to school.
 
The DfE has a helpline to answer questions about COVID-19 related to education. Staff, parents and young people can contact the helpline as follows:

School Trips Abroad
 
The trip to Naples (departing 28th March) has been cancelled.
Trips to Belgium (departing 13th March), Germany (departing 19th June) and Disneyland (departing 16th July) - we hope to be able to run these trips as planned, but will be monitoring closely all Foreign Office advice regarding travelling abroad in case circumstances change.
