Home Learning
We have had a few queries regarding home learning whilst self isolation takes place. Whilst we appreciate and actively support the need for you to continue your child's education at home, we cannot send home individual packs for all children absent at this point. Below are some recommendations for you to support learning at home.

Please keep in mind that we’re only sending out this information to help the school community prepare. There are currently no plans to close but being prepared and equipped for this possibility is essential.
