Dear parents,

First of all, thank you for your continued support and diligence in adhering to all essential safety measures put in place for schools. 

These are unprecedented and challenging times for schools up and down the country. It is with sadness that I inform you that a pupil in 7D form class has tested positive for Covid19. As a result of this, the whole ‘class bubble’ will need to go home to isolate until Wednesday 7th October. 
We continue to follow all advice provided by Public Health England. 

Please ensure that pupils in 7D access their online learning resources via our website and follow the plans and information given to them today. Although absent from school, there is a wide range of work for completion. Pupils please hand in any work completed on paper to your form tutor upon your return to school. 

All other groups of pupils to remain in school. 

Just a reminder of our repeated safety message:

If your child is displaying any kind of Coronavirus symptom , they must stay at home for 10 days. If a member of your household is displaying any symptoms, the whole family must stay at home and isolate for 14 days. In both instances, ensure that you book a book a test immediately when displaying symptoms by using the online system or by ringing 119 if you are unable to book online. We would advise that you notify school in the event that your child or a family member receives a positive test. Please contact school if you are unable to access a test for any reason.

Main symptoms are a high temperature, a new, continuous cough or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste.
