Key Actions
- Our student and staff will follow their normal curriculum timetable.
- promote good hygiene standards by cleaning hands more often than usual and on arrival and before and after eating, and after sneezing, coughing - washing hands thoroughly for 20 seconds with soap and water and or use of approved hand rub or sanitiser
- promote the ‘catch it, bin it, kill it’ approach with tissues widely distributed throughout the school
- ensure classroom windows are open at all times throughout the school day to create natural ventilation. In cooler weather windows will be opened just enough to provide constant background ventilation, and opened more fully when unoccupied to purge the air in the space
- clean frequently touched surfaces often using detergents and antibacterial wipes
- ask all staff to wear face coverings in communal areas (not in classrooms) where social distancing cannot be maintained
Use of communal areas:
We will:
- require all staff to wear a face covering in communal areas and make it optional for pupils (subject to review)
- supervise circulation around the school and ensure staff and pupils follow the 'keep to the left' procedure for corridors and stairs
- where possible, ensure that toilets do not become crowded by limiting the number who use the toilet facilities at one time
- allocate cloakroom pegs so that year group cohorts keep their belongings (coats & bags) in an allocated area
Break and Lunchtime Arrangements
We will:
- designate year group seating areas in the dining hall at break time
- only seat one year group cohort at a time in the dining hall at lunchtime
- increase outdoor supervision at break and lunchtimes and where possible make use of our extensive grounds
- distribute play equipment which will be cleaned after recreational use
