Believe in Yourself - Anything is Possible!
Dear Parents/ Carers,
Over the last couple of days, the Government have been sharing their COVID-19 Recovery Strategy and have made some announcements regarding primary schools and how they might reopen from June 1st.
We are still waiting for more information from the Department for Education but what we do know so far is that from June 1st, the Government are hoping that Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 children might be able to return in small groups depending on what the national infection rate is like at that time.
The Government have also said that their ambition is for all primary children to return to school for a month before the summer holiday if feasible.
The Government have published more information for parents here: Opening schools and educational settings to more pupils from 1 June: guidance for parents and carers
As you can tell, nothing is definite about reopening at this stage as it depends on lots of external factors and, here at school, we need to do lots of work to decide on how to manage a phased reopening in order to keep children and staff safe. I will contact you with more information as and when I am able to share it.
In the meantime, nothing has changed for the next three weeks. We are continuing to provide children with ideas and activities for home learning on the school website and school is closed for all children except those whose parents are key workers or who are seen to be vulnerable. Staff will contact families again next week to check on how children are and provide guidance on children's home learning.
Whilst school is closed, there may be no one available to answer the school telephone so please email enquiry@rgntpark.bham.sch.uk if you have any questions or require any further information.
We hope you continue to stay home as much as you can and stay safe and healthy.
Take care everyone,
Mr Beale
