Please find attached a communication from Vice Principal Mr Wakefield relating to the wearing of face coverings and the proposed early finish for students in secondary phase only for Wednesday 26th May.
We are aware that several students are coming to the end of their Covid test kits. We are expecting a delivery from the Department for Education within the next few days, hopefully today. We are only sent enough kits for the numbers of staff and students with a few surplus so we do not have enough to issue all students with another kit.
Please find attached below a letter from Vice Principal Mr Wakefield regarding information relating to Lateral Flow Testing over the bank holiday weekend period.
