strike action update - 25th january 2023

Dear parents and carers,

As you will know, strike action is planned by the National Education Union (NEU) for Wednesday 1st February.

Can I confirm  that we do intend to open for certain classes, due to expected adequate staffing. The classes that we currently expect to open as normal are:

• Reception

• Year 1

• Year 2  

• Year 4

For classes not listed above (Nursery, Year 3, Year 5 and Year 6),  we can not currently confirm if those classes will be closed or not. Because of this, we do advise that parents begin to make arrangements for their children to not be in school on this day. It is possible that the situation could change and we will keep you updated between now and Wednesday 1st February.

Where classes are expected to be closed, we will be able to offer a small number of places following the government's guidance on ‘Vulnerable Children and Young People’. In these small number of cases we will contact parents directly over the next two days. A link to the criteria set can be found here -  See Annex A - Vulnerable Children and young People

Yours sincerely 

Matt Condon
