Dear parents and carers,

Following the release of the Government’s list of key workers we need to find out which families need their children to come to school so that they can continue working on frontline services as stated below:

• Health and social care
• Education and childcare
• Key public services
• Local and national government
• Food and other necessary goods
• Public safety and national security
• Transport
• Utilities, communication and financial services

Can we remind you that where possible we want families to follow government advice: ‘If it is at all possible for children to be at home, then they should be.’ You may already have childcare arrangements in place at home and therefore might not need our support.

If you, or your spouse are a key worker, as defined above and would need to send your child to school, please complete the online questionnaire that is linked below.

Once we have received questionnaires we will be contacting individual parents in regards to school arrangements as soon as possible.

We appreciate your patience during this difficult period. Staff are working around the clock to accommodate the needs of families where possible.

Thanks

Byker Primary School
