Getting Back to School…

Hi
 
I have decided to write/send this quick SEN Update about a week before schools go back for the new academic year this year (I will send my normal SEN Update for the Autumn Term in the week after schools go back).

​This is because I know that this year there is a lot of confusion and complexity about getting children and young people back into school after the Covid-19/Coronavirus situation.

I thought I would firstly try and make things a little easier for people by preparing this video below...
I am also sending you links to some information and guidance that you may benefit from, as follows:
​
  • 'Guidance for full opening: schools' [updated from August 2020]
  • 'Guidance for full opening: special schools and other specialist settings' [from July 2020]

You may also find it helpful to look at:

  • ​Guidance on ‘Safe working in education, childcare and children’s social care settings, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE)’ [from June 2020]; 
  • Guidance on ‘Shielding and protecting people who are clinically extremely vulnerable from Covid-19’ [from July 2020];
  • 'COVID-19: guidance for young people on shielding and protecting people most likely to become unwell if they catch coronavirus' [updated in August 2020]
 
And if that were not enough(!), I am also putting a link here to some further guidance produced over the summer, as follows:

  • ‘Transport to school and other places of education: autumn term 2020’ [from August 2020]
 
I hope that this helps people.
 
With good wishes, 
 
Douglas
