_________________________________________________________________________

NO TOILETS FOR UKS2 boys this week – use main corridor. Manage how many pupils are accessing these during lessons – remind them that it should be break/lunch as a priority.

_________________________________________________________________________

HEALTH AND SAFETY – Everyone must be alert to the risk of a security breach at the front of the building. All external access doors – kitchen, hall (x2) JC room and community room as well as the obvious front door – all of these provide potential access to our children and we need to safeguard them. NEVER prop any open due to overheating or any other reason. Do not invite access to the building via any other route than the front office. If you see anyone who is not following safe practices, please inform TD or MB. Thank you.
