Our Lady's Catholic Primary School

Communication

Please keep getting in touch - it's great for us to hear how the children are doing.  We will get back to you if you have any questions as soon as we can - usually during school hours by the next school day.

Dear Parents/Carers,

I hope this finds you all safe and well.

I am sure after the Prime Ministers statement yesterday evening, there are lots of questions you have. We have lots of questions that need clarification too.

At the moment, for us in school, there is no change to guidance. We will provide care for those parents who are key workers and for vulnerable children. The message is still that it is safer to stay at home.

We have not yet received any information to support us with this new plan to start the phased reopening of some year groups. We expect we will receive further information from the DFE shortly, hopefully with some clarification.

We will need clear guidance to plan how it is possible to social distance in schools and keep our children, teachers and families safe; how we might start to phase groups of children returning and what this looks like. Please be assured we will not reopen until we are 100% prepared.

As always, we will keep you informed but for now, please try not to worry. Our plan is to continue to provide activities for learning at home, keep contact with you, our families, and continue to support each other in these difficult and uncertain times.

Many Thanks,

Mrs Emerton
