Monday 19th September 2022 Bank Holiday - Queen Elizabeth II Funeral
Wed 14 Sep 2022Monday 19th September 2022 Bank Holiday - Queen Elizabeth II Funeral
Our thoughts with the Royal Family on the passing of Her Majesty The Queen.
In light of the recent passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, SAIL Academy Trust wishes to pay respects and give thanks to the service of our longest reigning monarch.
The passing of our Queen has impacted on all our school community. It is a huge source of sadness for us all. Our thoughts are also with those who have experienced grief and loss in many ways and remind ourselves that this loss may trigger difficult emotions in in our children and all in our Trust community.
For many of our children, this may be their first experience of loss. This is a time for patience and deep understanding of the far-reaching and sometimes unexpected impact of losing someone important. A time to look after each other and reach out where support is needed.
We will be closed on Monday 19th September to pay respect to the extraordinary life of service of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. -
LCC Schools reopening Letter for Parents and Carers
Wed 26 Aug 2020ENQUIRIES: Steve Reddy, Director,
Children & Young People’s Service. OUR REF: SR/CK/JJ
DATE: 25TH August, 2020
Dear parents and carers,
As the new academic year approaches, we are writing to let you know about some of the work we have been doing with schools to prepare for pupils returning safely in September.
The disruption to the lives of our young people over the last few months has been challenging for everyone. We are all desperate to return to some sort of normality as soon as we can: getting our young people back into a routine of learning and giving them the best chance of reaching their potential in as safe a way as possible. It is absolutely crucial to your child’s future, so it is important that we all work together so they can get back to school.
We appreciate that you and your child may be anxious about a return to lessons, but we want to reassure you that all practical steps are being taken to make sure children are as safe as possible.
Schools have been working extremely hard, both before the end of term and during the summer holidays, to make sure the learning environment is as safe as it possibly can be when lessons resume.
An exhaustive risk assessment has been carried out by every school, covering as many scenarios as possible. We have asked that all schools make these risk assessments available on their school website.
In addition to pupils being taught in ‘bubbles’ to limit their exposure to other children, extra cleaning and sanitisation measures will be in place, along with social distancing measures where possible.
Schools have been working closely with our colleagues in Public Health to put in place systems and measures to contain the spread of coronavirus if a positive case is identified. We will continue to follow the advice of our Public Health officials.
We ask for your ongoing co-operation to help minimise the risk of bringing the virus in to school, particularly by encouraging your family to practise good hand hygiene, observe social distancing advice, proactive use of face coverings and observing the limits on households mixing. It is clear that keeping the rate of transmission low in the local community will keep schools as safe as possible.
If you or your child displays COVID-19 symptoms, it is essential that you book a test at www.nhs.uk and inform the school so that the appropriate procedures can be followed.
We are grateful to all the teachers, school staff and trade unions who have worked with us to help get our young people back to school as safely as possible. Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and support during what has been an extraordinarily challenging period for everyone– it is very much appreciated, as is your support in ensuring children return to school.
More information and a list of Frequently Asked Questions can be found on our website atwww.liverpool.gov.uk and www.liverpoolexpress.co.uk/backtoschool, but please contact your child’s school if you have questions about their specific arrangements.
Yours sincerely,
Joe Anderson – Mayor of Liverpool
