There are two confirmed cases of C-19 in Peter Turner Primary School. We have assessed the risk to staff and children and taken advice from Public Health England and decided to temporarily close PTP Key Stage 1 and 2 (Years 1-6) until we receive further information. The Early Years bubble is not affected. 

Following a confirmed case of Covid-19 in the Margaret Brearley part of Whitefield this weekend, we have taken the decision to temporarily close the Margaret Brearley ‘bubble’ for the time being. 

I am pleased to let you know that we are opening more widely for a few more young people.

The Prime Minister’s announcement on May 10^th leaves advice for schools essentially unchanged. There is no firm date for school re-opening and the Department for Education’s position remains that parents should keep their children at home where possible. We are waiting for further guidance about what the government policy means for special schools and for our school. 

The whole academy, Whitefield Schools, Joseph Clarke School and Project Search will be closed from the end of the day on Thursday 19th March until further notice due to the continuing impact of the Coronavirus.

The next time you’re discussing your child’s progress with their teacher, you may notice that the way we measure how they are doing is beginning to change.

Faced with a set of rather tired planters, our Margaret Brearley School got each class to adopt a pot. The results were beautiful, but how do you judge which one is best ?
