15th May 2020 Dear Parent(s)/ Guardian(s) I hope you and your families are keeping well. I am writing this letter to let you know the arrangements for the last two weeks of term. By now, you have received your child’s most up to date remote teaching timetable. Teachers are following this timetable and are either emailing a work package during their scheduled time slot, or hosting a zoom lesson and in some cases both.
