Return to School September 2020
All contents of this Charter have one goal: the continued safety of children, parents/carers and staff.
Based on the most recent Welsh Government guidance, the following will apply on our return to school. There will be regular review of the school’s COVID19 risk assessment.
- Classes will stay together and not mix, so there will be no whole school activities such as assemblies etc
- Strict hand hygiene will remain in place
- Only essential visitors will be allowed on the school site
- Staff will need time to reassess where the children are, so a short parent report will be provided by the end of the Autumn term.
- Parent’s evenings will not take place in the Autumn term
- There will be no after school clubs run by staff, in order to minimise the number of contacts during the day for all children
- We will return to having sensible indoor shoes for Y2-Y6 children, so please ensure they are brought in in the first week back.
- We will expect all children to wear uniform (our new logo will be ready by mid-September but uniform with old logo is fine to wear)
- We will continue the enhanced cleaning schedule throughout the day, including frequently touched surfaces, toilets etc
- We will reduce the number of contacts between staff and children wherever possible
- The majority of children will sit side by side and facing forwards as opposed to being in groups
- We will be unable to prepare food at this time so please provide your child with a healthy morning snack
- Breakfast club and after school club will resume on 7th September 2020

Hand washing and hygiene requirements

- Any pupil deliberately coughing or spitting at other pupils or staff will be sent home.
Lunch
Lunch will be provided in the usual way. A menu has been posted on the school website. The contents of a lunch box will need to be accessed unaided by your child, to ensure social distancing is maintained wherever possible.
Personal Belongings
All stationery will be provided for the children so they do not need to bring pencil cases etc into school. There will be no show and tell until further notice. ONLY essential items should come into school such as coat, lunch box, snack etc.
P.E Kit
P.E kit should be brought into school and left in school for the week.
Remember we are all continuing to work together at this uncertain time and we need to follow guidelines to keep everyone safe and provide the best opportunities possible.
