Dear Parents and Carers, 

This communication is the first of several that I will send to you in the next few days.  

I am writing further to the most recent announcement by Mr Johnson Prime Minister this afternoon, who has confirmed that all schools in England will close from the end of the school day on Friday 20th March until further notice.  However the government has directed schools to continue to provide for specific groups of children. 

In order to action plan we need to know how many children have parents who are key workers. It is our understanding that children of these parents will be able to continue to attend school from Monday 23rd March.  Further information will be sent regarding this. 
 
The categories are - 
NHS staff 
Critical care workers 
People who work for the emergency services – such as police force and ambulance service 
Social care workers who look after the elderly. 
Supermarket delivery drivers 

If you fall into the above categories please email the school office at adminoffice@chalkridgepri.hants.sch.uk by 9am on Thursday 19th March.  Please state the following information: - 
Your child/children's name
Year Group/s
Your name 
Your role 
Location of your work 
 
I will be in contact with all parents again as soon as is possible on Thursday 19th March.
