You may decide that the journey into school is not safe for your child. If that is the case then please stay at home. Please contact the school to report the absence in the usual way.

Snow

How will we let you know if the school is closed?

If we do experience severe snow/ice resulting in hazardous conditions, we may have to take the decision to close the school. Once this decision has been made we will aim to post messages on our Headteacher Blog by 7:30am, or as soon after as possible. We will update the Headteacher Blog regularly to keep parents and students informed about arrangements for the following day. We will also notify parents via the Kent Closures website and by text. Please visit http://www.kentclosures.co.uk. Within minutes of the school posting information on the Kent Closures website, Kent radio stations will use this information to broadcast closures over the radio. The Kent Closures website can also be used to find out if other services in Kent are open or closed, such as nurseries, children's centres and libraries. Parents/guardians may wish to sign up for text message alerts on www.kentclosures.co.uk - please be aware that there is a charge of 20p plus the standard network charge.

Even if the school is open, you may decide at the start of the day that the journey into school is not safe for your daughter/son. Please can you then contact the school to report the absence in the usual way.

The school will always remain open whenever possible. We will only close on health and safety grounds, e.g. no heating,no running water, insufficient staff to supervise the students or if the site is not safe.

Mathletics

Unfortunately Mathletics is no longer available. When Miss Robson looked at how often it was being accessed, there was only a handful using the resource since September. We are however, looking for a new maths learning program and will keep you informed.

Here are some resources for you to use at home:-
