Home Learning for pupils isolating due to Covid-19 Autumn Term 2021
Parents are asked to notify school immediately if your child tests positive for Covid-19. Your child will be required to isolate for 10 days from the onset of symptoms or from the day of the test, if no symptoms are present.
Your child's teacher will email planning and resources for home learning during your child's isolation period. Please contact your child's class teacher via enquiry@newoscott.bham.sch.uk if you have any questions or require support with the work set.
