Latest News

Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

  • Coronavirus update

    Fri 13 Mar 2020 RWilmot

    In light of the advice from the government, the Department for Education and Public Health please read the document regarding the latest advice - you will find this in the newsletter section of the website.

    School will remain open until we receive further advice or notification. To ensure we keep everyone as safe as possible, some non-essential events may need to be postponed. Whilst this may be disappointing, it is sensible to minimise the number of people accessing the building. Your co-operation and understanding is appreciated.

    Please inform the school of any new coughs/flu-like medical conditions.

    The police have visited school to inform us that the incident has been resolved. 

    Pupil welfare will continue to be monitored throughout the day.

  • Update re police incident

    Wed 05 Feb 2020 RWilmot

    This morning we have had a serious community incident involving the use of police.

    All pupils who arrived via Briar Gate or Canal Street were escorted into school by staff and were immediately taken inside. Harrington, Parklands and Wilsthorpe Schools were, and are, working together in a co-ordinated manner to ensure pupil and staff safety and welfare.

    Year 6 and Mr Dutton's class have been moved in to the main building so that close supervision can be kept on all pupils and staff. 

    Access to the campus via Canal Street and Briar Gate is prohibited by order of the police.

     

    We will keep you updated.
