Following on from Boris Johnson’s announcment of Lockdown this evening (04.01.20), we would like to confirm that school will be closed to pupils unless they fall into the Key Worker or Vulernerable category. If you feel your child fits in to one of these categories then please contact school and let us know.
Remote learning will be provided for those pupils at home and planning for this will be carried out by teachers this week.
