Letter to Parents May 5th 2020 The COVID-19 pandemic is identifying new families within Derbyshire who have seen their personal circumstances change dramatically, have lost income, and may be finding it difficult to claim benefits and seek assistance. We are concerned that there may be some families, now be eligible for Free School Meals, but unsure how to apply or who don’t know if they are entitled. It is important to remember that families who become eligible now will be protected and continue to receive free meals until March 2022 under a new ruling following the rollout of Universal Credit. Taking up this allowance can save a family budget over £400 for each child every year. You can read the letter here Covid19 Free School Meals Letter to Parents March 18th March Covid-19 Letter to Parents We are currently experiencing an unprecedented situation with the rapidly changing advice and guidance around Covid-19. We would like to keep parents and carers as up to date as possible by directing them to the following means of information.

Breaking News March 19th School Closure and Assessments this Summer The Prime Minister announced last night that school would be closing on Friday evening March 20th. Eyam school will be closed ‘until further notice’. There are many issues to resolve including which schools will be open for the children of ‘key workers’, what this provision will look like and who is a key worker. We are waiting for a list from the Government and then request that parents contact us. You will receive information about how to access learning activities and the various login information needed to use some of our learning platforms later today. If you have any questions, please contact your child’s teacher before the end of the week or ring and we will return your call.It has been confirmed that children will not take statutory tests this year. This includes the Year 1 phonics check, Year 2 SATs, Year 4 times table check and Year 6 SATs.As parents this is a very difficult and uncertain time for us all. The whole staff team are working together to make plans.
