SCHOOL CLOSED: HOME LEARNING SUPPORT
LATEST NEWS FOLLOWING UPDATE;
Dear Parents/Carers,
As you can imagine the government announcement last night, Sunday the 10th May, has left us with many unanswered questions and a vast range of logistical issues to sort to ensure that when children do return to school they can do so safely.

Once we have received this guidance we will be back in touch with you to answer any questions that you may have.

UPDATED INFORMATION
Dear all,
Please find the released list of key workers who, as of Monday, are still eligible to receive childcare from school during the closure. Can we please echo the calls from the Government and Prime Minister when we ask that if you can look after your child/children at home, you do so. School staff, like other key workers, must protect themselves during this pandemic and schools must practise social distancing as much as they can. That means providing care only when it is essential for the parent and the child.
We understand that this is a confusing and sometimes frustrating time but we do all need to work as a team to get through it. We feel that this is the quickest way to hopefully get back to normality and your children back in school where they belong.
If you are classed as a key worker and you need the service of childcare, please can you get in touch with school by 1pm by phone, email, dojo or school comms. If you do not, we will assume that your child will not be attending from Monday.
Many thanks again for your support, good wishes and patience during this time. We really appreciate all you do as parents for High View.
