Dear All Saints' Community,

 

I regret to inform you that due to an extremely high number of staff absences - many related to Coronavirus - I have had to take the decision to close the school to a number of Key Stage 3 pupils, on a rota basis.

 

* THE CLOSURES WILL COME INTO EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY 8TH DECEMBER 2021, and will run up to and including Monday 13th December 2021. *

 

Key Stage 3 pupils are planned to be educated on-site/ educated at home as follows.

• Tuesday 7th  December: Year 8  in school; Years 7 and 9 at home.
• Wednesday 8th December: Year 9 in school; Years 7 and 8 at home.
• Thursday 9th December: Year 7 in school; Years 8 and 9 at home.
• Friday 10th December: Year 8 in school; Years 7 and 9 at home.
• Monday 13th December: Year 9 in school; Years 7 and 8 at home.

 

Pupils who are not in school will be provided with online learning through Microsoft Teams and/ or Show My Homework - class teachers will inform pupils of the details directly.

 

* For YEARS 10 and 11 school will be OPEN AS NORMAL: pupils will be expected to attend lessons on-site unless a parent or carer has notified the Attendance Officer of an authorised absence. *

 

The closure is expected to last up to and including Monday 13th December, but it will be reviewed daily and the community will be informed of the actual re-opening date as early as possible.

 

I assure you that this decision has not been taken lightly, and I apologise for the short notice provided and inconvenience to families.

 

If you need to contact the school please email us at office@allsaintshigh.lancs.sch.uk, and someone will get back to you as soon as possible.

 

Yours sincerely,

Mr B McNally

Headteacher
