Dear parent/carer.

In response to the reported high prevalence of Covid-19 in our area at the moment, all pupils in The Robert Burns Academy, including those in S1-S3 will now be asked to wear face coverings for the duration of their indoor lessons as well as in corridors and communal spaces. This will offer an additional layer of protection for pupils, teaching staff and classroom assistants and assist our efforts to suppress the spread of the virus. Whilst this is a school-level request and not national guidance, I would really appreciate your support in encouraging your child to comply with this request unless they have a medical exemption.

Many Thanks

Stay safe and well

Peter Gilchrist
