Covid-19 Updates

During the current Covid-19 pandemic, we will share the most up-to-date guidance and information for parents and carers via this page.
It is essential that we work in partnership with families to both minimise and mitigate the risks of this virus entering our setting, ensuring the safety and well being of all staff, children and their wider families.
Please read our risk assessment, operational plan, and system of controls, for a full and detailed guide explaining how we will run during the pandemic. This information is subject to change should we receive updated guidance from our local education authority.
Please note, the setting will operate as a 'bubble', therefore, if we have a confirmed case of Covid-19 and that person has been in the setting within the 48 hour period prior to the onset of symptoms, it may become necessary for the whole setting to close to enable all children and staff to self-isolate for a 10 day period - this will be dependent on advice from Public Health England
From 12.03.21, the Government have updated their guidance - all parents and those in a support bubble with pre-school children are now encouraged to access twice weekly lateral flow tests. Staff have also been invited to test twice weekly to help stop the spread of Covid-19.
