COVID-19 ALERT TIER 3 – VERY HIGH - DONCASTER

This week it was announced that South Yorkshire (including Doncaster) is to be moved into COVID-19 Alert Tier 3 from Saturday 24^th October 2020. Full government guidance on Tier 3 restrictions are available by following this link: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/local-covid-alert-level-very-high?priority-taxon=774cee22-d896-44c1-a611-e3109cce8eae

The main differences in the three alert levels are listed in the table below:

At this difficult time, we continue to monitor and follow government guidelines in school and review and adapt our risk assessments accordingly. Please support us in keeping your child, our staff and our whole school community safe by adhering to the restrictions and not putting lives at risk.

Please be assured that, in the event of a positive test in our school community, we will be in direct contact with the Department for Education and will act on their advice. If it becomes necessary to close a ‘bubble’ in school, you will be contacted as soon as possible after that decision has been made.

Reminder of COVID-19 symptoms and what to do:

Main symptoms

The main symptoms of coronavirus are:

a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature)

a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)

a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal

Most people with coronavirus have at least 1 of these symptoms.

What to do if you have symptoms

If you have any of the main symptoms of coronavirus:

Get a test to check if you have coronavirus as soon as possible – book online or phone 119

Stay at home and do not have visitors until you get your test result – only leave your home to have a test. Anyone you live with, and anyone in your support bubble, must also stay at home until you get your result.

If you have any questions, please contact the school and we will do our best to help.

School Meals

School dinners will be reverting back to hot meals only after the half term break. Pupils in Reception, Year 1, Year 2 and those who qualify for free school meals do not have to pay. All other pupils should pay for their meals in advance on ParentPay. Meals are charged at £2.50 per day.

Anyone wishing to have packed lunches must bring one from home.

Filled with my Spirit, how you will grow!
