COVID-19 arrangements
In line with Public Health England guidelines, all non-essential contact must be avoided to stop the spread of COVID-19. The department therefore advises against governing bodies meeting in person, and to instead adopt alternative arrangements with the agreement of all parties.
The Governing Board for the school will therefore be holding future meetings via video-conferencing until further notice and will be adhering to the Virtual Attendance Policy.
