Corona Virus (COVID-19)
COVID 19 Risk Assessment - September 2021
COVID 19 Outbreak Management Plan
Update 01.09.21
Taken from DfE publication What parents and carers need to know about early years providers, schools and colleges during COVID-19
"From 19 July the government continues to manage the risk of serious illness from the spread of the virus. This marks a new phase in the government’s response to the pandemic, moving away from stringent restrictions on everyone’s day-to-day lives, towards advising people on how to protect themselves and others, alongside targeted interventions to reduce risk.
As COVID-19 becomes a virus that we learn to live with, there is now an imperative to reduce the disruption to children and young people’s education - particularly given that the direct clinical risks to children are extremely low, and every adult has been offered a first vaccine and the opportunity for 2 doses by mid-September."

Everybody Worries: An online picture book for children who are worried about Coronavirus
Nosy Crow have created a free information book explaining the coronavirus to children, illustrated by Gruffalo illustrator Axel Scheffler.
The whole world is talking about the corona virus. Schools have closed, and children are asking a lot of questions. This short film uses PLAYMOBIL to help explain in a way that children can understand what is happening right now, what we can all do to ease the situation, and why it so important to avoid contact with other children and adults.
