UPDATE 12/5/20

Good Morning All,

I am sure you are aware of the news last night in regards to schools and possibly opening again. Whereas we are excited about the ideas of this, we will not be able to provide further details until we know more.

The safety of your children is paramount, and as yet, without the information needed we cannot plan for the opening of the school.

When we have this, we will let you know by text and the website the plan.

What I would say is that this is a good time to start routines up again, and we will provide more information soon about this.

We will let you know more, when we know more, but rest assured it will be focus on keeping everyone safe; we will adhere to strict rules to ensure your child is kept safe and limit numbers in school.

Mr Fox

Dear Parents and Carers,

You will have heard the Prime Minister indicating that the government believes it may be in a position to implement a phased re-opening of schools from 1 June, starting with pupils in reception, year one and year six. This is part of the government’s conditional plan which it says will remain under regular review.

However, as any school member will tell you, the first priority has to be the safety of everyone in the school community.

We will continue to ensure that any plan to increase the number of pupils in schools has to be practicable and manageable. One worry is that, as broadly outlined last night, the government’s conditional plan may not be either of those things. In many cases it will be physically impossible to bring back the number of pupils being suggested and maintain any sense of social distancing.

At the moment I have no further information from the government about what this means for school. For now, in the short-term, nothing has changed, we are still open to children whose parents are key workers and cannot be cared for safely at home.

I will hopefully have an update on Friday; however, this is dependent on many different things happening.

Please keep checking the website and send us a text if you need anything.

Please keep on the website for work and online learning ideas.

As always, we are driven by our core values of Hope, Perseverance and Friendship.

Mr Fox and Team Donnington

I Know it may seem a world away yet, but these are the dates for next year.

We hope you are safe and well.

Watch the news over the weekend, and we will be in touch with our plan, but please bear in mind safety is always the priority.

Please find attached our review.

Please note the context of coronavirus. Although it did not impact the year April to April, it did reduce our ability to assess the final data.

It will also mean that many of the lessons learnt reflect on the need to continue and extend the support we offer. The new policy is currently being created but it will reflect on this need, and what needs to be done!

Hope, Friendship and Perseverance and our motto TEAM, have never been more important.

Thank you
