Parent&Carer Letter 22nd March

Please download the information for children attending school.  This applies from Monday 23rd March 2020.  As you will be aware, the situation is changing at a fast pace and so more information will be coming from NLC in the coming days.

Keyworker Info 1

A form has been circulated by North Lanarkshire so that they know who is attending school and when.  This came out after Mr Thomas issued the form asking similar questions.  Even if you have already complete the St JPII form, you are still required to complete the NLC form.  Apologies for this duplication.   This should be completed by Parents/Carers who are sending their children to school.  Copies will be available for you when you drop your child at school.  Or you can download and print it yourself.  Click on the link below.

PLEASE ENSURE YOU COMPLETE A FORM.

Keyworker Info 1

Please complete the Form below to register your child(ren) for attendance at school.  It is important that we have this information for planning purposes.

Take into consideration all of the advice given by the First Minister and also North Lanarkshire Council.  This is obviously not “business as usual” and every effort should be made to minimise the need for children to be at school.

If you need any support or further advice, please contact Mr Thomas by email on  ht@johnpaul.n-lanark.sch.uk

Please watch the video and have a read at this page as it clearly explains the plans for Monday morning and all the key worker categories. Please note, as is mentioned in the video, that you should only bring your child to school if it is absolutely necessary.

Coronavirus Update 20th March

More information to follow.

From:  Derek Brown, Executive Director

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED ON FRIDAY 20TH MARCH 2020 AT 2PM

Dear Parents /Carers

Following advice from the Scottish Government to close educational establishment today, we fully recognise that from today children and young people may be at home for a long period of time and we have produced a suite of materials to support their learning – further information about materials will be sent to you in due course.

Understandably, this is an unsettling time for children, young people and their carers and many people will be feeling anxious about the current situation and the impact that it may have on the health and wellbeing of family, friends and colleagues.

For this reason we have also included information to help you reassure your child.  Many of these resources have been developed in collaboration with South Lanarkshire Council.  The attached document provides some advice and guidance.

We will continue to up-date this resource and ensure that it is widely available online.  You will be notified of these updates next week.

Thank you for your on-going support during these challenging times.

Regards

Derek Brown

Executive Director
