Information for Key Workers (Covid19)

We have nearly 60 children registered for the emergency childcare we are seeking to provide at Trinity CE Primary School; this is a very large percentage of the school population.

Your child may only attend the school if you received a letter from us on Friday 20th March to say you had received a place. Anyone coming to school on Monday who has not received this letter will be turned away. Please be aware that this provision is not mandatory and that the co-headteachers retain the right to manage this as they see fit.

What will this care look like?
We are offering a safe place for your child in the event that you have no safe alternative. If they can stay at home, they must stay at home. Home is the safest place for children to be.

Please do not use this provision because you think it will be nicer for your child than being at home – the school provision must only be used as the last resort. If you have an alternative at home, please use it. Less people means less risk of infection.

We are not continuing with the curriculum. Where possible, we will help children with the work being set via the website. Children will not be disadvantaged educationally by not taking part in this childcare.

We already have a large number of staff who are unable to work due to self-isolation. The provision we offer is vulnerable to closure should more staff become unwell.

We will be maintaining distancing measures as much as we are able to. This means children will sit at separate tables and will be discouraged from touching one another, holding hands or sharing equipment. We will continue to have stringent hand washing routines in place at key points during the day. Children will be asked to wash their hands upon arrival into school and at other key points throughout the day.

When you pick up and drop off you child, please observe sensible distancing from other parents and children.

What you need to do:
  1. Send them in sensible, comfortable clothes with trainers and wellies, so we can get them outside as much as possible.
  2. Make sure your child washes their hands before leaving home for school.
  3. Wash your child’s clothes after a day in school and make sure they shower/bath when they get back from being in school. Children may carry the virus and display no symptoms. Your children are much more likely to pass this virus around because they are continuing to access the school site and mix with children. We have to do everything we can to avoid spreading the virus into our community.
  4. Take them directly home from school and keep them there. They should not be playing out or visiting friends or family.
  5. Ensure sure we have the most up-to-date contact details for you.
  6. Understand that if your child displays any symptoms, they will be placed in an isolation room and you will be contacted immediately. They will be sent home and will not be able to access the provision for 14 days.
  7. Understand that the school care is vulnerable to sudden closure. Of course, we will do everything we can to stay open but our staff have to follow the same guidelines that apply to everyone else.
  8. Remember that our childcare is flexible. We would much rather you only used the provision when you absolutely have to. Feel free to drop them off late and collect them early to fit in with shift patterns. We want to reduce their exposure to one another as much as possible.
  9. Only use school for care if there is genuinely no alternative.
