IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Following an update from the Government, students are required to wear facemasks in communal areas around school from tomorrow morning. Please ensure your son or daughter has a mask with them from tomorrow morning. Thank you for your cooperation.

Government guidance for schools

In schools where pupils in year 7 and above are educated, face coverings should be worn by adults and pupils when moving around the premises, outside of classrooms, such as in corridors and communal areas where social distancing cannot easily be maintained. This was already the case for pupils in year 7 and above, and staff and visitors for those schools that were in areas where local alert level ‘high’ and ‘very high’.

Some individuals are exempt from wearing face coverings and we expect adults and pupils to be sensitive to those needs.

Face coverings should also be worn by pupils in year 7 and above when travelling on dedicated school transport to secondary school or college.
