Priory School

Message to our famillies.

I sincerely hope that you have all managed to have an enjoyable summer, despite the rather disappointing weather.   I would like to offer a very warm welcome to our new Year 7 parents.  We very much looking forward to sharing this next phase in your child’s education with you. 

You will no doubt have seen in the press the changes that face schools as we enter the Autumn Term.   I have written to parents/carers with details of the measures and restrictions that we are adopting within our school community.

As you can imagine, the past 18 months have been particularly difficult for both families and schools.  While restrictions have eased, I am sure you will continue to have concerns in relation to the changes proposed by Government.  Please do contact us if you want to discuss any of those concerns, or if there is any way we can support you at this time.   

Although the message from Government is that children will be back in school full time, we are also being asked to consider contingency planning should we have a significant outbreak,  or shortages of staff that put health and safety of staff and students at risk.  We all sincerely hope that we do not need to consider putting any of these into action.

Like you, we very much hope this term will run as smoothly as we can with a clear focus on students learning and progression.
