Update for our residents
2 September 2020 Message from the council
A big welcome to all those children and young people who started at our schools this week (and congratulations to parents and carers for getting them there!). This year has its own particular challenges but parents and carers can rest assured that measures are in place to keep children and young people safe. We already experienced a successful return to school in June, when children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 and students from Year 10 and 12 went back. This success was entirely because of the excellent planning by our schools, working with guidance from our schools support teams. Schools have since built on this experience to ensure that all children return safely this week. You'll find practical advice and information in the update below. Thank you for your support.
