Covid-19 School Updates
This page will be subject to updates as and when required. If you would like to see a copy of our risk assessment then please contact the office.
Covid-19 - April update:
From the 1st April, the legal requirements to self-isolate has been removed, though staff and pupils are advised to try to stay home if they have symptoms of a respiratory infection and a high temperature or if they feel unwell, or if they test positive for COVID-19.
New self-isolating guidance for pupils and staff:
Those with a positive test result will be advised to try to stay home and avoid contact with other people:
Staff for 5 days
Pupils for 3 days
Both pupils and staff should try to stay home and avoid contact with others if they have symptoms of a respiratory infection and a high temperature or if they do not feel well enough to do normal school activities (returning to school when they are well enough, and no longer have a high temperature)
We will be keeping our contingency plans under review and continue to implement measure to keep the school community safe: good ventilation and frequent handwashing; encouraging personal responsibility by asking those who are clearly unwell to stay at home; and supporting personal choice for face coverings to be worn.
Thank you for your co-operation in helping us all to stay safe and healthy.
Covid-19 Catch up Premium
In June 2020 the government announced £1 billion of funding to support children and young people to catch up on missed learning caused by coronavirus (COVID19). This is especially important for the most vulnerable pupils and pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds who we know have been most affected.

National Tutoring Programme
The National tutoring Programme is Government subsidised initiative to help students catch up in key subjects as many children's learning was affected by the national lockdowns. In 2021-2022 some children have had 1:1 or small group tutoring to enable them to catch up with their learning. They had additional sessions in maths or English with a qualified teacher who was known to them and works at the school.
