IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS/CARERS AND SCHOOLS

KPA and Oak Park are currently closed to all but the most vulnerable pupils. We are currently providing child care services to support particular families and children -and are following government guidance on this . We will be in contact with all the families that this applies to.

We will also be in regular contact with all of our families to check on family wellbeing and just to keep in touch.

We have given home learning packs out to those pupils who attended during the latter part of the week of 16.03.20. We will email work out to parents/carers and we also have links on our website to educational resources and websites.

Keep healthy and safe everyone and we look forward to things being back to normal at some point.

For urgent enquiries and any safeguarding concerns, please contact the Headteacher, Anne Sturman on 07854 265 287 / asturman@kenningtonpark.org.uk

PLEASE GO TO OUR PARENTS AND CARERS TAB FOR INFORMATION ON HOW WE ARE SUPPORTING FAMILIES DURING THE COIVID PANDEMIC INCLUDING INFORMATION ON HOME LEARNING.

Coronavirus NHS Advice

Dear Parents and Carers,

Novel Coronavirus 

I am writing to reassure you that the school is following the advice of Public Health England (PHE) and the Local Authority to ensure the health of our whole community, including pupils and staff.   

Novel coronavirus (2019-nCov) is a new strain of coronavirus first identified in Wuhan City, China. The Department of Health and Social Care and Public Health England are carefully monitoring the coronavirus situation and have published information and advice for the public. As the situation is rapidly developing, please check the online advice for the latest and most up-to-date information https://www.gov.uk/guidance/wuhan-novel-coronavirus-information-for-the-public and the PHE blog for further information https://publichealthmatters.blog.gov.uk/2020/01/23/wuhan-novel-coronavirus-what-you-need-to-know/

We are aware of the stories and rumours circulating in the media and local area in relation to schools closing. The guidance from the government is really clear and I would like to take the opportunity to assure you that we have not been put on alert to close and at present we have no plans to close the school for any additional time.

We are working closely with the Local Authority and if we are advised differently by Public Health England and the Department for Education to close, we will inform parents and carers immediately.”

We provide alternative school provision and support to pupils from 5-11 years of age, either with an interim school place or in school support via our Behaviour Support Outreach Service.

Our mission statement aims include:

• To offer a secure and carefully structured environment, where disaffected and/or permanently excluded pupils develop as confident and independent learners able to achieve their best outcomes
• To promote the values of citizenship, courage, friendship, equality, determination, inspiration, mutual respect and tolerance
