Kingstone High School’s Executive Headteacher David Bennett has provided an update on the current situation after the school took the decision to close after consultation with Public Health England due to a high number of COVID-19 cases.
COVID Firebreak Closure
Unfortunately, we have to announce the temporary move to remote learning at Kingstone High School, after discussion with Public Health England. This is due to the high and rising numbers of positive PCR tests that mean we can no longer deliver ‘in person’ teaching to an appropriate quality because of staffing constraints and the proportion of students not in school, affecting the continuity of provision.
All students will now need to study online, at home, from Thursday 23rd September to Friday 1st October inclusive (seven school days).
Students will return to face-to-face lessons on Monday 4th October.
Our Open Days are:
CANCELLED – Tuesday 21st September
CANCELLED – Wednesday 29th September
Thursday 7th October – To be confirmed
Appointments are at 9.15am, 11am and 2pm. Please phone the school office on 01981 250224 to make an appointment
Our Open Evening is
Thursday 7th October starting at 6pm.
Mr David Bennett
Executive Headteacher
