Coronavirus (COVID-19) advice
Schools and nurseries
Updated 22 March 2021
All pupils in primary schools returned on 15 March 2021 and from this date there has been a phased return of secondary schools until the Easter/Spring break. Taking into account the improving national position and after consulting with our partners, specific support for key worker children is being scaled down.
Schools will close for the Easter/Spring break on Thursday 1 April at 2.30pm and reopen Monday 19 April 2021. During this period there will be no ‘hub provision’ as schools are closed and this time is also used to prepare for more pupils to return in April.
