Update Coronavirus
Following on from the government’s briefing earlier today, I would like to reassure you, once again, that the academy is continuing to follow the latest advice and guidance issued by Public Health England. Please see a summary of this update below:-
· staff, young people and children should stay at home if they are unwell with a new, continuous cough or a high temperature to avoid spreading infection to others. Otherwise they should attend education or work as normal
· if staff, young people or children become unwell on site with a new, continuous cough or a high temperature they should be sent home
· clean and disinfect regularly touched objects and surfaces more often than usual using your standard cleaning products
· supervise young children to ensure they wash their hands for 20 seconds, more often than usual with soap and water or hand sanitiser and catch coughs and sneezes in tissues
· posters and lesson plans on general hand hygiene can be found on the eBug website
· unless you have been directly advised to close by the local Public Health England Health Protection Team, we recommend all education settings remain open
·
Yours Sincerely,
Gemma Cottingham
Headteacher
