Dear parents and carers,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for you patience and understanding in our first week back. It has run very smoothly and most of you have been great at following the one-way system and remembering to socially distancing from each other. Our children have been wonderful and followed all procedures in school. Their behaviour this week has been exceptional and their teachers are very proud of them.

As of next week, our start time is 8.30-8.45am for all children and the finish time is 3pm. We are still having drop-off and collection points as the classroom external doors. Please continue to follow the one-way system and enter through the main gates and leave via the car park gates. Staff are supervising the gates in the morning and will make you go back the other way; this is in place to protect you, our children, staff and their families. Please be mindful when waiting for your child to enter their class that you are stood away from other families.

If you are late in the morning (after 8.45am), you will need to bring your child to the main office so we can record the time they enter school and the reason why they are late.

On your child’s PE day they need to arrive in school in PE kit and trainers (burgundy or white t-shirt, black shorts, leggings or jogging bottoms and a grey hoodie).

Enjoy your weekend.

See you on Monday,

Katy Tomlinson

Please find the link here to the Breakfast Club Booking Form.

Booking Form

We have had to make some changes to our Breakfast Club provision for the Autumn term due to being able to keep children socially distanced before they enter their bubbles.

If you are a working parent and require Breakfast Club provision, then please complete the form and return to A2134@telford.gov.uk.

You must book and pay for the half term in advance.

Dear Parents and Carers,

I hope that you have all had an enjoyable and safe summer break.

School Infection Control Procedures for Parents

The Sir Alexander Fleming team have all been working hard on a robust plan to ensure the best possible safety around our full reopening of school in September. Please find below some of the measures we are putting in place and that you MUST follow:

• Do not arrive early or late, we are trying to ensure a limited number of parents on site and a swift drop off and collection at your allocated time and drop-off point.8:30am – 3:00pm: Year 1, Year 4, Year 6

  8:45am – 3:15pm: Year 2, Year 5, Year 3

• Children need to be dropped off and collected from their classroom external doors – these will be clearly labelled
• Do not hang around on the playground or at the front of school talking with other families or friends – you will be politely asked to move on.
• All entrance and exit points will be staffed to ensure sensible queuing
• Only 1 parent to bring children to school
• Enter school through the main front gates ONLY
• Exit school through the Car Park gate ONLY
• Follow the one-way system at all times
• Stand 2 metres away from all other families, door entrances and teaching staff
• If you need to talk with the class teacher in the morning, then please pass this message to the adult on the door, remembering to stand 2 metres away.
• If teachers speak to you at the end of the school day, this will be outside at a 2 metre distance.
• If you need to come into the Reception foyer, then please adhere to one person in at a time and stand back from the glass.
• Use the hand sanitiser at the main entrance before entering the building.
• If your child is bringing their own packed lunch to school then this needs to be brought with them at their start time. We are unable to move around school to deliver packed lunches brought from home.
• Ensure your child brings their own water bottle to school and takes it home for careful washing each day.
• School uniform is required.
• Long hair MUST be tied up – if not teachers will supply hair bobbles.
• NO jewellery is to be worn – the virus can live on certain metals for up to 72 hours. Children will be asked to remove this on entry to the classroom.
• If children are travelling to school on public transport, then they must wear a mask. On entry to school they must dispose of the mask in the lidded bin in the classroom immediately and wash their hands. If it is a reusable mask, then the child must keep this in a sealed plastic bag in their bag.
