Pumpherston & Uphall Station Community Primary School 37 Pumpherston & Uphall Station Community Primary School 37 Drumshoreland Road Pumpherston West Lothian, EH53 0LF Tel: 01506 280995 email: [email protected] website: http://puscps.westlothian.org.uk Twitter: @PUSCPS Head Teacher: Miss Sarah Burton Dear Parent/Carer, As you will be aware, the Scottish Government has introduced a new framework for tackling the Coronavirus pandemic. This involves each area of the country being placed in a different Level, ranging from 0 to 4. At each level, different steps are taken to limit the spread of Coronavirus. This includes some changes in schools. West Lothian has now been placed in Level 4 from Friday 20th November, and as from Monday 23rd November, the following changes will apply in schools: Physical Education will now only take place outdoors. While the delivery of PE continues to be a priority, if weather is extremely bad, schools will use their judgement as to whether it is safe for children to be outside. Non-essential activities or clubs outside the usual school timetable will pause. This will not include regulated childcare operating. Children on the shielding list should not attend school. Parent/carers of children on the shielding list should contact Miss Burton as soon as possible. All schools will review the existing measures they have in place to reduce the spread of Coronavirus, and remind all pupils of the importance of complying with these measures. In line with Scottish Government guidance, face coverings should be worn by parents and other visitors to the school site (whether entering the building or otherwise), including parents at drop-off and pick up. This includes in the playground and on the vicinity of the school grounds. A reminder of the test and protect procedures; Test and Protect It is essential that pupils do not attend school in the following circumstances: Pupils must not attend school if symptomatic.

Pupils must self-isolate and stay at home if advised by Test and Protect contact tracers. Pupils returning from outside the United Kingdom must self-isolate and stay at home for 14 days, unless the country they return from is exempt. Pupils must inform a member of staff or responsible person if they feel unwell while in school with symptoms of COVID-19, and follow any instructions they are given.

Background 2.2 As members will recall, during 2001 -2002 the Central Scotland Transport Corridor Study (CSTCS) commissioned by the Scottish Executive looked at public transport and road improvements for communities served by the A8 and the A80 travel corridors. The re- opening of Airdrie - Bathgate railway was the main public transport project identified in the CSTCS to reduce congestion on the M8/A8 and to improve transport links between West Lothian and North Lanarkshire with Glasgow and Edinburgh. 2.3 The Scottish Ministers announced their decisions on the CSTCS in January 2003 and this included a decision to provide support and finance towards the reopening of the line. Funding was subsequently given to West Lothian Council to progress detailed feasibility studies into the project. A Steering Group comprising senior officers from West Lothian Council, North Lanarkshire Council, Strathclyde Passenger Transport and the Scottish Executive let an outline design study in October 2003 to the Babtie Group. The study has been the first step towards delivering a rail service along a re-opened Airdrie - Bathgate route and the finalised report has now been received. 3.
