A message was sent home today to all Parents/Carers: 22nd June 2020

 

This year, we will not be able to send our usual end of year report because the children have not attended school formally for such a large amount of time.

 

We have therefore changed our reporting system for this year to take account of the lockdown. We will send a report summary - this will add some further detail to the written summaries sent in April. (Some aspects may be the same as teachers may not have enough evidence to add further detail).

 

In addition to this, we will offer each family a 10 minute telephone discussion with their class teacher to discuss the child/ren. Some teachers have already sent out their Booking Information via SchoolPing, others will follow shortly. Please sign up for a 10 minute slot and please provide the telephone number you would like us to use - this can be added in the comments area when you book your time slot.

 

These meetings will be staggered over the rest of term and the written Report Summary will be sent to you during the final week of Term 6.

 

Regards,

Simon Marriott

On Monday 15th June we look forward to welcoming back our Year 1 pupils who have confirmed their attendance. 

 

Parents/Carers who had selected for their child's return were sent out a SchoolPing message on 5th June. The message includes a letter confirming drop off/pick up times and arrangements for Seahorse, Jellyfish and Starfish bubble groups. 

 

We are all so proud of how well our Reception, Year 6 and pupils of key workers have returned to St Martin’s throughout this week.  It’s been lovely to see the children settling back in and they have all been absolutely brilliant!! ⭐️

A message was sent out this afternoon to all parents/carers from Simon Marriott, with an update regarding the wider reopening for Key Worker pupils, Year 6 and Year 1 bubbles at St Martin's.

Statement from Simon Marriott, CEO Kaleidoscope MAT

 

The Trust Board had planned to meet this morning to discuss whether our schools should reopen on Monday for Years R, 1 and 6.  Yesterday, we were told that we would receive additional information from the Local Authority today regarding the local situation. This will be sent late afternoon or early evening.

 

We have therefore postponed the Board meeting until this evening so that the Trustees have the latest information on which to base their decision.

 

This means that we will not be able to provide you with further information today about wider reopening.

Regards,
Simon Marriott
