Friday 20th March

Today our school partially closed. For the most part our children will stay at home safe from the virus. We will home school the majority and support the key worker families and the vulnerables.

Today we had confirmation from the government that families only needed to have one key worker parent to be able to send their child into school. We have requested that parents keep their children home as much as possible as this is the safest place for them. So from Monday we will open to a small group of children, with a skeleton staff. This seems very surreal!

The UK Government orders all pubs, restaurants, gyms and other social venues to close. The Chancellor announces the government will pay up to 80% of wages for workers at risk of being laid off.

Told from my perspective I hope it gives you a flavour of what our children experience at school and beyond.
