โฝ๏ธ ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ After School Sports Clubs Suspended
Mr J Sharp
Dear Parents/Carers
I am incredibly sad to inform you that the DfE released guidance yesterday instructing schools to suspend after school clubs that were not in place for childcare purposes. Please see the DfE paragraph below.
Schools are able to work with external coaches, clubs and organisations for curricular activities where they are satisfied that it is safe to do so. Where schools are offering extra-curricular activities (that is, before and after school clubs) they should only do so where it is reasonably necessary to support parents to work, search for work, or undertake training or education, or where the provision is being used for the purposes of respite care.
Therefore, Mondayโs Athletics club for Year 4 and Wednesdayโs Football club for Year 5 will not take place until further notice starting immediately.
We will get in touch with you all as soon as the restrictions are due to be lifted, to tell you what our plans are.
All sports activities within the school day will continue, so One Goal and City in the Community sessions will carry on. Breakfast Club and Windsor Road After School Club are not affected.
I know this is another body blow and I feel really sorry for the children, who I know absolutely love the sessions.
Many apologies and thanks
Mr. J. Sharp
Head Teacher
