Covid-19

Coronavirus Information

Please find below information about Coronavirus (COVID-19) and advice from the Government relating to Walkley Primary School.

Walkley Primary School is open for all pupils from Nursery to Year 6.

IMPORTANT - Wider Opening of school for all pupils from 2^nd September 2020

We are delighted to be able to welcome back all our pupils from 2^nd September 2020. From Nursery to Y6, all pupils will be placed into a class (social bubble). In-line with government guidance and to continue to help mitigate the risks of growing numbers of pupils in and around school and the mixing of larger numbers of parents dropping off and picking up their children, we have structured the school day to accommodate 15 groups of children across school working in accordance with the additional health and safety measures that are required under the current guidance for wider opening.

Management of a Suspected Case of Covid-19

Any children with coronavirus symptoms  MUST NOT attend school. These are:

• a high temperature (above 37.8C)
• a new continuous cough
• 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.

If they have any of these symptoms, or live with someone else who is symptomatic, they should stay at home and self-isolate for 10 days.  If your child develops any of these symptoms whilst they are at school you will be contacted and they will be sent home.
