Langloan Primary School

A challenge has been set on Sumdog  for 3D shape.  Go on! Give it a try everyone! Don’t forget to log in to Glow and let us know how you are doing.

Please find attached an information letter regarding the school arrangements here.

The Keyworker ProForma form can be accessed below.  This form has to be completed by Key workers who require childcare arrangements via school/nursery

Appendix 8 – Key Workers Pro Forma

Please read all attached letters carefully for full information on arrangements for week beginning 23rd March.  I have also attached letters distributed tonight from NLC regarding this week’s provision.

All parents/carers will be asked to provide relevant information with regards to their employment and working patterns.  In this instance, please pay particular attention to the ‘key worker’ proforma registration form.  If you can fill this in before bringing your child(ren) to school tomorrow it will minimise waiting time.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation at this time.

Arrangements for week beginning 23rd March.

School is closed to limit the spread of COVID-19.  Children of families where both parents are key workers with no alternative childcare options can report to school on Monday although this should be viewed as a last resort.   Where possible, children should stay at home to minimise the risk to vulnerable children, children of essential key workers, school staff and their families.  There will be no access to the school building for parents/carers. Please telephone with any enquiries.

Message taken directly from NLC Facebook post

Schools only open to children of key workers to enable them to keep doing their essential roles. Only use school support if you need to. If you have a partner who is not a key worker, then please keep your child at home. To see key worker categories visit the ‘services affected’ page here: https://crowd.in/LhOjUH

I will be sharing the most recent information to be published by NLC. Please read carefully.
Our school will be open on Monday but only for those children who fall into the outlined key worker categories who can not make alternative arrangements.

Thanks  for your patience and cooperation with this matter.

Important announcement for key workers.

All North Lanarkshire schools will be open on Monday for the children of the following categories of key workers.

It is essential, to stop the spread of transmission of coronavirus, that people who can work from home do work from home. This is not business as usual and it is vital that this support being offered is only accessed by those who absolutely require it to enable NHS and other critical services to function.

If you’re a key worker who requires support, please take your child to your normal school on Monday. We will review these arrangements over the coming week and it is likely we will fully close some schools but we will inform you of this and the alternative provision we will put in place.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should any child who has symptoms of coronavirus, or who lives in a household where someone has symptoms, present at school. The whole family must follow the self-isolation advice.

Key worker categories:

Category 1

Includes:

Health and care workers directly supporting COVID-19 response and associated staff
Workers supporting life-threatening emergency work as well as critical primary and community care provision
