Please find below a link to information about meetings with new class teachers. These meetings have been offered to support pupils, especially as we were unable to do our usual transition activities last term. They are not compulsory but we look forward to welcoming anyone who would like to attend.

Dear Parent-classteacher meetings

Dear Parents/Carers,

Please find below the links to the home learning support packs for the next week. These will tie in with skills/activities completed in school if your child is returning.

Please make use of the Flipgrids that teachers are producing- these will support home learning. We are currently building up a bank of these that can be used throughout the school.

If you require any support, further work ideas or have any questions please contact the class teacher via dojo. Alternatively you can ring school and they will phone you back. Please note that, as they will be teaching during school hours, dojo messages may not be answered as quickly as before.

Many thanks for your continuing support,

Helen Woodford

Message from NPT Local Authority

Dear Parent / Carer

In response to the early lockdown period, Neath Port Talbot local authority provided hub childcare facilities for critical workers. This was an immediate response to the emergency childcare needs for those on the frontline of the national cause to minimise the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Schools were repurposed in line with Welsh Government’s guidance to provide these facilities.

Following consultation with other agencies including the NHS and as we progress our national recovery programme, the same level of need no longer exists and the lifting of restrictions allows for childcare to be delivered by more normal means. The repurposing of schools has been reversed and as a result, the local authority will not be providing summer childcare for critical workers. This decision is in accordance with other neighbouring local authorities, Welsh Government decisions and paves an opportunity for childcare providers in Neath Port Talbot to re-establish their businesses and ensure that childcare needs are met accordingly.

Families wishing to access childcare are welcome to contact the local authority’s Family Information Service (fis@npt.gov.uk ) who will provide a list of registered providers who would be able to meet their needs.

The local authority’s Children Services and Education Directorate are currently constructing a summer support programme for our most vulnerable learners, many of whom have found lockdown conditions particularly challenging and detrimental. This programme will seek to deliver bespoke support for those assessed to be our most isolated children and young people suffering from increased stresses and substantial psychological inequality. The programme will be configured around current resource, allowing services to deliver increased opportunities for safe social interaction and enhanced wellbeing and mental health interventions.

Again, we would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to parents and carers for their understanding and cooperation during these challenging times.

Yours sincerely,

Aled Evans

Director of Education, Leisure and Lifelong Learning

Please note that all meals have to be paid for, even if your child is entitled to free school meals. This is because of the current payments to the parents of pupils entitled to free school meals from NPT council.

Please watch our short video, which shows what school will be like when KS2 children return on the week commencing 29th June.
