The government has announced today that all pupils, in all age groups, will return to school full-time from the beginning of the new school year:
We are looking forward to welcoming all pupils back to school. Our working plans match the government's guidance for school leaders. This means we are already well prepared for re-opening:
While coronavirus (COVID-19) remains in our community, we re-open with a range of recommended protective measures including:
These protective measures mean that some things will look and feel different and a few things that we are used to in school cannot happen for a while. We will publish more information about our arrangements next week.
Every pupil is expected to return to school, including those who have been shielding or shielding a member of their household. Some pupils who remain under the care of a specialist health professional may need to talk about their care before returning to school. From September, absence will no longer be authorised unless agreed with a health professional.
All return to our usual expectations. Education day trips off-site re-start with additional protective measures. Residential, over-night, visits continue to be postponed at least for the Autumn Term.
If we have 2 or more confirmed cases with 14 days, or there is an increase in absence due to suspected or confirmed cases, we will work with our local health protection team. Closure is unlikely.
Mobile testing of a class, year group or whole school may then follow.
If a class, year group or whole school is forced to close, learning will continue for that group at home.
We have listened to parents and staff. We have learned lessons from this closure period. We are at an early stage, like most other primary schools in Ealing, of developing our use of a digital education platform to improve our home learning offer. We have chosen to use Microsoft Teams.
If pupils are learning from home during the next school year, we will take a blended approach, selecting lessons from Oak National Academy, setting and receiving work using Teams, and giving feedback to groups of pupils regularly by video in Teams.
Some classes in Years 2, 3, 4 and 5 will be invited to trial using video chat in Teams with their teacher at home before the end of this school year. We will contact parents of pupils who usually learn at home in 2F, 3F, 4F and 5F about the trial shortly.
