What Safety Measures Are in Place?

We have followed government guidance in assessing and mitigating risks at our school, based on the system of controls set out in the guidance document.

Ventilation – classrooms and learning spaces are kept well-ventilated with windows open.
Hygiene – we continue to provide facilities for children and adults to regularly wash or sanitise their hands. We encourage everyone to use tissues when they sneeze of cough and dispose of them immediately.
Cleaning – we have an enhanced programme of cleaning in place so that frequently touched surfaces are cleaned throughout the day.
Testing, Track and Trace – our staff take regular lateral flow tests to lower the risk of asymptomatic spread of Covid. Anyone with symptoms of Covid stay at home until tested and, if positive, remain at home for 10 days

It is no longer a requirement for face coverings to be worn by adults, so this will now be a personal choice. However, we will continue to use these in smaller spaces.

All of our safety measures are subject to change, depending on the case numbers.
