Parents of Briarwood School
Following further government guidance Briarwood school is trying to offer as much provision to those who want it.

As you are aware from previous correspondence, one of our biggest struggles is ensuring there are enough staff on site to provide safe education. With all primary and secondary schools closing, this is very likely to cause childcare issues for our staff, as well as those staff who are required to shield.

Over the last week we have been assessing the level of provision we can safely offer, with the ambition of being able to offer as many pupils as possible a place at school. This may not be a full time place and we will prioritise the children and young people who are in key worker families.

Whilst all pupils at Briarwood have an EHCP and are vulnerable, we have to ensure the safety of both pupils, families and staff and therefore will offer places to the most vulnerable first. This is in line with Local Authority and Government advice as well as our Covid-19 risk assessments.
 
Our aim is to offer provision for anyone that needs/wants it. Please note we are trying our best to accommodate as close to full time as we can, but we still need to ensure the safety of the pupils and staff.
We need to ask you whether any parent/carer in your household is a key worker so we know whether your child or children will need to continue to come into school. Only one parent or carer in a household needs to count as a key worker for this to apply to you.

Numbers may be limited and therefore to make it fair for everyone the provision may not be full time 5 days per week (for non key workers). The day will be normal school hours within your child's usual department. Please note that this provision is reliant on us having enough staff and our stocks of PPE for our staff to wear.

This questionnaire is to let us know of your ongoing onsite provision decision
