Coronavirus Update: Tuesday 12th May 2020 Dear Parents / Carers,
I am sure you will have heard the Prime Minister’s speech on Sunday 10 May 2020, in which it was announced that a phased return to school could begin from as early as 1st June for Reception, Year 1 and Year 6.
As further details of these plans are sent to us by the Department for Education from today onwards, the school’s Senior Leadership Team will be meeting to discuss all aspects of re-opening in consultation with other Nishkam School Trust leaders, local head teachers and national organisations. Please bear with us while we put our plans in place and be assured that we will leave no stone unturned in ensuring a safe re-opening for your children and our staff when the moment comes. As soon as plans are finalised, we will let you know.
Thank you for your on-going support of your child’s education and the school.
Yours sincerely,
Mr H S Dhanjal ,Headteacher
Mrs D Westwood, Principal
Nishkam Primary School Wolverhampton

Coronavirus Update: Friday 17th April 2020
Dear Parents / Carers,
We hope you and your families are all safe and well. As we are sure you will have heard based on the announcement from the Foreign Secretary on the 16 April 2020, the country will remain in lockdown for at least a further 3 weeks, so until we communicate otherwise, the school will stay closed for the majority of pupils and remain open for the children of critical workers. Our teachers will continue to set online learning. Thank you for your ongoing support through these difficult times.
Kind regards
Mr H Dhanjal

Dear Parents / Carers,
Please see the latest guidance from the DfE dated 24 March 2020, detailing how you can help to support the implementation of social distancing at our school:
- Please do not visit the school if you are displaying any symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19)or send your child into school if they are displaying any symptoms – follow the self-isolation guidelines from the government https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-stay-at-home-guidance/stay-at-home-guidance-for-households-with-possible-coronavirus-covid-19-infection
- If you feel you cannot cope with your symptoms at home, or your condition gets worse, or your symptoms do not get better after 7 days, then use the NHS 111 online coronavirus service. If you do not have internet access, call NHS 111. For a medical emergency dial 999
- Consider how your child is travelling to and from school – try to reduce any unnecessary travel on coaches, buses or public transport
- Please do not gather together in groups on or around the site.
Thank you for your ongoing support in helping to keep our pupils and staff as safe as possible at this time.
Kind regards
