Important – School fully closed on Monday 1st June

Dear parents,

For clarification, on Monday 1st June itself, we are closed to all pupils, including those of key worker families. No children will be allowed on site.

I appreciate that for some of you this will be tricky to make arrangements, and I do apologise for this.  However, to setup school and give training to all staff in preparation for a likely opening on the Tuesday, we must have the Monday available. This was previously an INSET day.

We are unable to take key worker children because all staff require training, and we have to prepare all classrooms, with a full deep clean. These are not small tasks. Many staff are also working this week to get ready, but it will not all be ready by the Monday.

Some schools are not opening until later in the week, or even the following week, and we are doing our best to try to provide an essential service for all, from Tuesday 2nd June. Home learning activities are still available on the Monday.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best wishes, Charles Applegate.
