Allergies and Lunches
We would like to remind everyone that we do have a pupil in school with a nut allergy. Could we ask that parents avoid packing any items in lunches that contain nuts.
Could we also give a reminder that packed lunches are not stored in a fridge when they come into school so any items that really do need refrigerating should be avoided
Lunch Accounts
We understand that there have been IT problems with the Telford and Wrekin lunch account system. Not only has the Balance Checker been out of action for a while, it has also been difficult to make payments. Please keep checking the site as it is hoped that the problems will be resolved soon.
Please note – when we return after half term it will be Week 3 on the menu
Used Uniform Sale – Recheduled
Due to high winds this afternoon this event did not go ahead. The plan is to reschedule this to after school on our first day back, Monday, 28th February. Hopefully, the weather will be a lot kinder and much better for shopping!
This is a really great initiative – helping to reduce waste and saves money!
We are fully booked for Wraparound and limited availability for Breakfast club on Thursday. Limited availability on Tuesday for breakfast and wraparound club. If you do require a booking, please contact the club manager in the first instance, to check if there has been any cancellations.
This information will be updated regularly. Thank you for your support.

My child has tested positive for COVID-19 – how long do they have to stay away from school/college for?
All people – including pupils parents and teachers – have to isolate for a minimum of five full days after the day of a positive test before then going back to school if they have tested negative twice.
The first full day of isolation is considered to be the day following the positive test. Following the fifth full day of isolation – on the sixth day – it will be possible for people who have received two negative LFD tests on consecutive days to go back to school.
People who have tested positive can now take two LFD tests on day 5 and day 6, and if both are negative and they do not have a temperature, they can end their self-isolation on day 6 and return to their education setting immediately.
If either test is positive, they should continue to self-isolate until they get negative results from two LFD tests on consecutive days or until they have completed 10 full days of self-isolation, whichever is earliest
In practice it means that if a child or teacher tests positive on a Saturday, that would be considered day 0. They could then take tests on the morning of Thursday (day 5) and Friday (day 6). If they tested negative on both days and did not have a temperature they would be then able to return to school on the Friday.
Yes – and they should. They should continue going to school but test daily. If they test positive they should isolate.
They’re exactly the same. If a teacher or member of school staff tests positive they should isolate for at least 5 full days. If they have 2 consecutive daily negative lateral flow tests at that point and no temperature they can and should return to work on day 6. If someone in a teacher’s household has tested positive the teacher should test daily and as long as they are negative they should continue to go to work. If they test positive they should isolate.
They’re the same. If a child or a member of staff tests positive they should isolate for a minimum of 5 full days. If by that point they have recorded two consecutive daily negative lateral flow tests and no temperature they can return to their setting on day 6.
