LGBT Charter Mark – Silver Level

LGBT Charter Mark – Silver Level

Dear Member of the School Community I write to you with the great news that we have achieved LGBT Charter Mark status at Silver level.

Half-term Hub Support

To assist colleagues directly dealing with the health response to the pandemic, we are providing childcare support over the school half-term holiday from Monday 8 to Wednesday 10 February at six school-based hubs. This service is only for key workers who are assisting with the ongoing health response with the NHS, other emergency services, or who are involved directly with the vaccination programme.
