Testing:

Further information about testing sites in Newham can be found here. The government have released guidance about lateral testing at home which can be found here.

Handwashing:

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is an easy virus to kill when it is on skin. This can be done with soap and water or hand sanitiser.

Pupils will clean their hands regularly, including:
- when they arrive at the school 
- when they return from breaks
- when they change rooms 
- before and after eating
- after sneezing or coughing

Bubbles and their organisation:

In Nursery, Reception and SEND classes, much learning is through play and exploration of the indoor and outdoor learning environment. As a result we will be operating a year group bubbles. Each of these groups are considered as one group/bubble. This means that we have three bubbles. One for AM/PM Nursery, one for reception and one for Bluebell and Daffodil.

Bubbles and their organisation:

In Year 1 - 6 we will be operating class bubbles. We will have forward facing tables in rows, the rooms will be well ventilated throughout the day by opening windows and vents and opening the door. Children will have their own stationery packs and shared resources will be cleaned or quarantined.

Government guidance recommends that primary pupils do not wear masks in school therefore we ask that they remove them before entering the building.

Start and end times:

In order to avoid large numbers gathering at the same time, we will continue to operate a staggered start and end of day routine (see table below). There will be a one way system in place at the start and end of day. Each Bubble will also have a specific entrance.
