Many parents have contacted me with two main queries about tomorrow. Here are my replies :

ONE : Buses will run as normal tomorrow morning

TWO : Do not worry about any assignments that were set on Monday for revision and homework. Everything will be revised in class and nothing will be tested that has not been taught by the teacher.

The whole school will be open as normal tomorrow, Thursday 31st October 2019, for all students in all classes.

We were meant to celebrate Reformation Day tomorrow but due to the large number of school days missed, we will be at school instead. The same will happen on Friday when we were meant to celebrate All Saints Day. This will occur throughout the year for most of the holidays that we had scheduled. Please do NOT schedule anything during these times. We will be at school!

After the momentous events of today and the uncertainty about tomorrow, the school will be closed, tomorrow, Wednesday 30th October 2019, even for A Level students.

We are monitoring the situation carefully and we hope we can reopen soon.

Work will be posted on LESSON, so all students and parents are urged to look at it every day to see if any more work has been set.

There will be school tomorrow, Tuesday 29th October 2019, for students in Classes 10A, 11A and 12A. For all other classes there will be no school. We are closely monitoring the situation to see when all classes can return to school .

Unfortunately we will not be able to run buses tomorrow, so we are asking all students to make there own way to school if at all possible. If any students in Classes 10A, 11A and 12A cannot make it due to safety reasons we will completely understand.

The timetable for these three classes is below :

There will be no school tomorrow, Monday 28th October 2019, for students. However, staff are hoping to attend the school to prepare work for students to do at home. We have now missed 7 days of school (with tomorrow included) and we cannot be sure when the streets will be safe enough to return.

To this end I am going to ask staff to prepare worksheets and details of work that can be done in all main subjects for students from Junior 1 until Class 12. This will be posted on LESSON, hopefully by 1:00 pm tomorrow afternoon.

As the work that is set by the teachers tomorrow will require books that the students probably do not have in their possession, I am asking as many parents as are able to bring their children to school tomorrow between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm, when their classrooms will be open for them to pick up ALL their books (main subjects only).

Staff will be discussing tomorrow morning if they need to bring exam classes in to teach them if the situation carries on. I realise that not all students will be able to reach school. The lessons will be videoed and then put on YouTube for download. I know this is far from ideal but we need to feel our way carefully in this situation. I will be posting details on this as and when we decide what to do.
