Update 5.3.21 (1)

Update 23.2.21

Change to School Inset Days

As you know all teachers are required to complete 5 training days during term time each year. However, it would seem sensible (in order to continue to support you with provision for Key worker & vulnerable children and to continue to provide remote learning) to postpone the inset days on Friday 29th January and Friday 5th March.

Consequently, school will continue on those days and the designated staff training will now take place on 19th & 20th July instead. The Inset day on 18th June will go ahead as planned. So, school will close to the children for the summer on Friday 16th July 2021.

To clarify, the 3 remaining Inset (staff training) days for 2021 will be:

· Friday 18th June 2021

· Monday 19th July 2021

· Tuesday 20th July 2021

Lockdown birthdays

If your child would normally receive a free school meal, you are eligible to apply for a £15 contribution (per child) to support you this half term week.

Please note, the scheme only applies to children whose parents receive certain benefits and does not include those eligible under the universal infant free school meal scheme.

Note: the closing date for applications is 4.00pm on Friday 30 October. http://www.durham.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals
