Change in DfE guidance on keyworker children attending school

9 January 2021 (by Sue Worrall (admin2))

CHANGE IN DFE GUIDANCE
PLEASE SEE PUBLIC HEALTH UPDATE FROM THE GOVERNMENT REGARDING CHILDREN WITH ONE PARENT WHO IS A CRITICAL KEYWORKER.
Please let us know (keyworkers@simmondley.derbyshire.sch.uk) if you wish to withdraw your place if you are able to, to help us keep numbers of households on site down.
We have a moral and a civic duty to stay at home. Parents and carers should keep their children at home if they can.
"Critical workers

Parents whose work is critical to the coronavirus (COVID-19) and EU transition response include those who work in health and social care and in other key sectors outlined in the following sections. Children with at least one parent or carer who is a critical worker can go to school or college if required, but parents and carers should keep their children at home if they can." (gov.uk)
