We are welcoming essential visitors back to the school but have some precautionary measures in place, including asking visitors to wear face masks unless medically exempt. Please see our Covid 19 Guidance for Visitors. We will review this regularly in line with Government advice.

Face Coverings
From January 4th, it is now recommended that face coverings are worn in classrooms where students in year 7 and above are educated. The advice is short term only, to support students and teachers as they return to school this term and builds on the existing guidance that recommends face coverings in communal areas. This does not apply in situations where wearing a face covering would impact on the ability to take part in exercise or strenuous activity, for example in PE lessons.
Therefore, unless a student is exempt, they should bring a mask into school daily to wear in corridors and classrooms. If a student is exempt, we would ask that they inform their tutor so we can record this, and for them to wear a pink lanyard which can be collected from reception. This updated advice on face coverings in classrooms will be in place until Wednesday 26 January, when Plan B regulations are currently scheduled to expire, at which point it will be reviewed.
