CORONAVIRUS UPDATE 18/03/2020

Dear Parents,

Please keep updated on new Government advice on COVID-19.

The most common symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) are recent onset of:

• new continuous cough and/or
• high temperature

The main messages are:

• if you live alone and you have symptoms of coronavirus illness (COVID-19), however mild, stay at home for 7 days from when your symptoms started. 
• if you live with others and you or one of them have symptoms of coronavirus, then all household members must stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days. The 14-day period starts from the day when the first person in the house became ill.

At present schools have not been instructed to close therefore we will remain open for as long as we can. However we have had to make a number of changes following current advice:

• To avoid mass gatherings we have cancelled all school assemblies and will inform you when these resume.
• School have cancelled all meetings and stopped staff going to other establishments for meetings.
  
• School trips will be cancelled and rearranged for a later date.
• All sports competitions have been cancelled.
• Outside agencies will not be coming into school e.g. the learning support service, speech and language therapist.
• We wish to continue our after school clubs for as long as we can, these may only cancel if staffing them becomes difficult. ​

If you are self isolating you will find school work for your child on our school website.
