Dear Parents, 

As you will now be aware the Government has announced a plan for students to return to school over a phased period. These timescales are open to possible change given the rate of infection in the country. We are currently working to plan for return of pupils and we will ensure that you are updated as soon as possible.

We reassure you that the health and wellbeing of you and your children will be at the front of our plans.

Smestow will still remain open for the children of key workers (e.g. NHS staff, police, teachers, nursery staff, delivery drivers) and vulnerable children (those with an Educational Health Care Plan, Children who are Looked After and those who have a Social Worker). Children who do not fall into any of these groups should remain at home with appropriate care.

If you are returning to work as a key worker and it is difficult for your children to remain at home, please email us at keyworker@smestow.org in relation to whether their child or children will be at school so we can ensure that there is appropriate staffing levels in the school. 

We have maintained the 'Independent Learning' section on our website with work for each year group. Live question and answer sessions are offered throughout the week, check the Independent Work section of the website to see the timetable.

GCSE and A level exams will not take place this summer and instead will use a system of teacher predictions standardised by Ofqual. We now know that the exam results will be provided to students on the original results days previously advertised.

All of these measures are intended to support the country’s fight to tackle Covid 19.

Thank you for your support and understanding at this very difficult time.

Kind regards,

Mr D. Smith

Interim Head of School
