Parent Update Friday

20 March 2020 (by Martin Coyne (m.coyne))

Good Morning

Once again thank you for your patience with the drip drip method of sending information through to you all. The content of my daily updates depends  on any information that comes through from Government and LCC.The key workers document was published by the DFE just before midnight . You will receive yet another survey from us so  we can update our records of those children who would be allocated a place in school from Monday. NEW SURVEY  Please remember it will purely be childcare and not teaching from 8.55-3.20. We are still seeking guidance from LCC so all schools are acting consistently . 

However the Government are continuing to say if it is at all possible for children to be at home , then they should be . Once we have the full data for those parents who are key workers and require a place in school from Monday we will let you know individually of that allocation. 
Can I urge you to fill in the survey ASAP so figures and staffing ratios  can be sorted in good time. If  I give you the deadline of 2pm today for this . On Wednesday we had 41 children at home and yesterday we had 51. 
Here is the link for the key worker list so if you are unsure if you fall into any of those categories you can quickly check.
If I don't see you for a while keep safe , wash hands and keep your distance. Please stay in touch either  via your class teachers email address or via mine.
