Dear Parents and Carers,
Below are some
important updates and information that you should be aware of.
School reopening
Currently, we
have no additional information about when our children may fully return to
school. We have been told that the government will
conduct a review by mid-February and potentially set out a plan to bring the
country out of lockdown (which should include schools). Schools have been told
they will receive 2 weeks notice before any form of a return. We will of course
share any updates with you when we have them.
Chromebooks
If you have a school Chromebook, you may
keep the device at home until your child returns to school.
Bubble
places at Mead Primary School during the lockdown
We have now received over 150 requests for places which is stretching our staffing resources to the limit. Places should only be taken for children of critical workers and those defined as vulnerable to attend where it is absolutely necessary. If you have requested a place for your child in school, please urgently and seriously consider whether it is essential for them to attend school. The safest place for your child is at home. Please keep your children at home if at all possible.
Google
Classroom
Please do get in touch with your year group
if you need any help or support.
