Pupils should not attend school if they have symptoms of COVID-19:

fever, new persistent cough or anosmia– they should isolate, get a PCR and only return if the PCR is negative and they are better (and 24 hours free of any fever and 48 hours free of any diarrhoea/vomiting).

If they have what is termed ‘precautionary symptoms’, which is basically any cold, flu or gastrointestinal symptoms, they should take a PCR test but we would not expect them to miss school unless there were exacerbating factors such as them being the known contact of a positive case.

Please communicate with the office on 01952 386600 or nicola.moody@taw.org.uk about COVID related symptoms, testing and attendance.

Children can bring a packed lunch or have a school dinner.

Our school dinner menu can be found here:

Children can order a hot meal in the morning with their class teacher.  Meals can be paid for online at: https://www.telford.gov.uk/info/20028/school_meals/8/pay_for_school_meals you will need your child’s code to do this and can obtain this by emailing lynne.stanley@taw.org.uk

This half term Years 6 and 3 will be swimming in our school pool.

Year 6 will swim on a Monday and Year 3 on a Tuesday starting from the week beginning 13th September.

To swim children require a costume/trunks, towel and a swimming cap.  Children may bring goggles if they wish.

We ask that children bring their PE kit into school on a Monday and it will then be returned home on a Friday.
