School reopening w/c 8th March

There will be a phased return to school, students will be sent an appointment for a Covid-19 lateral flow test.  Students must only attend at their appointment time and report to their usual gate.  Following the test, students will remain in school and attend lessons as normal. Students awaiting their appointment can join live lessons remotely.  Students must attend school in full uniform with a face mask and be ready to learn. Year groups will be allocated appointments on the following days:

Year 11 – Monday 8th March

Year 10 – Tuesday 9th March

Year 7 – Wednesday 10th March

Year 8 – Thursday 11th March

Year 9 – Friday 12th March

During this period of national lockdown, pupils will receive high quality online remote education through Microsoft Teams. In order to maximise pupils’ exposure to the powerful knowledge delivered by our expert teaching staff, we ask that all pupils follow their normal timetable between the hours of 9am and
3pm. Assemblies will be provided outside these times (see lesson timings below) and additional academic interventions may also be offered to targeted pupils (pupils and parents will be notified about this separately).
