January arrangements and keyworker arrangements
FINAL Parent-carer letter – January 21 return 21.12.20
Key Workers school and ELC support request form January 21
Please find a letter from NLC outlining plans for January and the keyworker application form.
Keyworker forms are dealt with centrally. The school will be notified of all successful applications before the 6th January. We will not be able to make definite arrangements about classes and groups in school until we receive this information from NLC. These forms can be completed online.
I have contacted all school children who meet the vulnerable criteria to inform them that they should report to school as normal on the 6th January, along with keyworker children. If you have not been contacted and believe that your child meets the criteria of a vulnerable child, please call the school tomorrow.
On the first day only, all keyworker and vulnerable school children should enter by the main entrance between 8.50am and 9am. The back gate will not be opened. Children will leave by their usual exit between 2.50pm and 3pm. You will be advised of subsequent arrangements when we assess how many children we have in school.
Breakfast club will be open from 8.15am for vulnerable and keyworker children only from 6th January. Lunch arrangements will be as normal.
Nursery children who meet the vulnerable criteria will be contacted tomorrow. Keyworkers should complete the same form as the school children. Vulnerable and keyworker children should enter in the usual way between 8.30am and 8.50am and be collected between 2.30pm and 2.50pm as before.
Online learning will begin on the 11th January 2021. More information will follow, but in the meantime your children have been issued with their login details for GLOW and other learning platforms.
Thanks to those who have alerted us to the need for increased access to digital resources. This information has been passed to NLC and the demand will be dealt with in due course. In the meantime, the school does not have sufficient resources to meet demand. Parents and carers are reminded that most activities can be accessed on a mobile phone.
Please continue to look out for further updates.
In the meantime, I hope you all have a great Christmas and let’s all hope for a Happy New Year!
Regards
Mrs Matthews and the team
