The Good Shepherd Trust takes the welfare of our school communities very seriously and is monitoring the current situation closely.
We continue to work with our Health and Safety Advisors at Kym Allan and are keeping up to date with all Government advice and guidance.
At present the DfE have confirmed that no school should close in response to a suspected (or confirmed) COVID-19 case, unless directed to do so by Public Health England.
If you have concerns or questions about the arrangements at your child’s school, please contact your child's school directly for further information and support.
There is a dedicated helpline to answer questions about COVID-19 related to education. Staff, parents and young people can contact the helpline as follows:
Telephone: 0800 046 8687
Email: DfE.coronavirushelpline@education.gov.uk
Opening hours: 8am to 6pm (Monday to Friday)
