Further to our last message; we have checked the CCTV, the young male has come up through the fields and headed towards West Crescent. Our school gates are closed, we request visitors to kindly close the gates behind them. If staff notice the gates open, they are arranged to be closed.

Just to make all parents/ carers aware there was an unidentified male loitering outside school and in the car park. We have reported this incident to the local police who are looking into the matter. Any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact school.

Message from the Department of Education:

Information for parents and carers on COVID-19 vaccination for at risk 5 to 11 year olds

Children aged 5 to 11 years who are in a clinical risk group or who live with someone who is immunosuppressed can get the COVID-19 vaccine, in line with advice set out by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) . Eligible children include those with diabetes, immunosuppression, learning disabilities, and other conditions as outlined by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) in the Green Book.

Vaccinations help to increase protection against COVID-19, which is particularly important for those with underlying health conditions.

Further information is available in the guide for parents of children aged 5 to 11 years published by UKHSA. We have published some frequently asked questions on the vaccination programme including information on eligibility, accessibility and advice for parents of children at high risk from COVID-19. Following advice from the JCVI, healthy 5 to 11 year old children will also be offered two 10 microgram doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. The NHS will prepare to extend this non-urgent offer to all children during April

GP’s will again be inviting all 2- and 3-year-old children to have a flu vaccination. This vaccination, like all other routine childhood vaccinations is free, so you do not need to pay.

Having a flu vaccine if you are eligible and able to have it, is an important way to help protect yourself, your family and those you have contact with from flu infection. It is expected there will be high levels of flu germs circulating this year so, it is particularly important to take up the offer of a vaccine. This will help reduce the risk of illness within your family.
