Letter to parents 24th February
Dear Parents / Guardians
Thank you so much for your support of Home School today.
As we prepare for our return to on site learning we will be taking every opportunity to celebrate with our students the learning they have undertaken and the skills they have acquired over these 2 months.
COVID-19 testing schools consists of lateral flow tests, self-administered by students, either by a swab from the nose or throat, with staff on hand to offer advice if necessary. Current Government Guidance suggests students will self-administer 3 tests in school, prior to receiving testing kits from school, so they can undertake further weekly tests at home.
Today, we are providing you with access to 2 publications from the The Parents’ Guide:
Studying for A levels and Much More
Studying for GCSEs and Much More
These publications are particularly useful as parents reflect with their children on arrangements (not yet published) for cancelled summer examinations and planning for the next stage of their educational journey.
Over the coming two weeks, we will be continuing with welfare calls and our monitoring of attendance to Live Online lessons, in order to ensure our transition back to on site learning is as seamless as possible.
The Daily Tutor Time activity tomorrow is: Thursday - PSHE. Students should access these materials and submit their work to their Daily Tutor at the end of the day.
We will write further with information about on site arrangements before students rejoin us, though these arrangements will not differ substantially to those we ran with during the period from September – December.
We want all our students to remain safe by following the National Lockdown Guidance
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/national-lockdown-stay-at-home as well as to remember social distancing, hand washing and face coverings, so as to play their part in the fight against the spread of COVID-19.
Yours Sincerely,
Sonette Schwartz
