This information is intended to provide clarity and transparency to pupils and parents or carers about what to expect from remote education if local restrictions require entire cohorts (or bubbles) to remain at home.


In the event of a local outbreak, the PHE health protection team or local authority may advise a school to fully or partially close temporarily to help control transmission.


Edward Peake C of E Middle School has a contingency plan for this eventuality. This may involve a return to remaining open only for vulnerable children and the children of critical workers and providing remote education for all other students, or it may involve remote education for certain year groups for a period of time.


Information about what and how work will be provided for pupils in these different circumstances is detailed in the report below.


For details of what to expect where individual pupils are self-isolating, please see the final section of this page.
