Covid Reminders

• Use the email covid@stmarksce.org.uk if you have questions or need to report symptoms or a positive case.
• Please keep us updated – for example, of test results.
• Read this letter from Public Health England about symptoms and testing.
• NHS Symptoms Check
• If a child or parent is at home because of symptoms, please keep the siblings off too. IE the whole household needs to isolate, and the person with symptoms needs to get a test.
• We are moving online with homework, spellings and Google Classrooms. If you need help with technology, please do let us know by emailing the office.
• If a child is off school but able to work, then Google Classroom work is available – and it should be completed. Teachers spend a lot of time making sure this work is available so no-one misses out!

Going to be absent?

We’ve moved our absence request form online. This is for absence requests such as holidays, weddings, funeral, special events, and more. You don’t need to use this form for sickness or self-isolation (but please email/phone the office if they are unwell).
