17th July 2020 Broadoak School – Re-opening Plans

Dear Parents/ Carers,

As we approach the end of this academic year, firstly I would like to extend my thanks for your support throughout this period of remote learning. Pupils have engaged well with our new online systems and their willingness to embrace new technology has been admirable and bodes well for a smooth return to face-to-face learning in September.

I am delighted to inform you that we plan to reopen fully in September. All pupils will be back to school full time and will follow their normal curriculum. Please rest assured that we have plans in place to ensure that all pupils will be able to catch-up on missed curriculum content and Y10 in particular should not be concerned. Specific plans are in place to ensure that your courses will resume smoothly in your GCSE year.

In a change to the published calendar, the school will be re-open to pupils for an induction day on either Thursday 3rd or Friday 4th September for specific year groups. The school will provide home learning materials for the alternative day on which pupils will remain at home. School will re-open for all year groups on Monday 7th September.

In line with national health and safety advice, pupils will remain in the ‘bubble’ of their year group. To minimise the contact of pupils across ‘bubbles’ I also ask that pupils attend via 1 of 2 separate entrances. The separate entrances and exits to and from school alongside start and finish times for the new term are as follows:

Year Entrance Induction Day Full School Reopening Group Start and Finish Time on Start and Finish Time from 3rd or 4th September Monday 7th September 7 Gym Entrance 4th September 08:30- 14:50 Wait in Canteen B 08:30- 14:50 8 Gym Entrance 4th September 08:40 – 14:55 Wait in Main Hall 08:40 – 14:55 9 Main Entrance 3rd September 08:45 – 14:55 Wait in Canteen A 08:45 – 14:55 10 Gym Entrance 4th September 08:50 – 15:00 Wait in Sports’ Hall 08:50 - 1500 11 Main Entrance 3rd September 08:30 - 15:00 Wait in Small Hall 08:30 - 15:00 Our school site is large enough to accommodate separate inside and outside break and lunch areas. However, for the first half term there will not be a hot lunch service at school and pupils will not be able to buy food and drink at breaktime. Pupils will be able to order from a range of cold lunch options but should bring a snack for breaktime (please see the enclosed rules on healthy eating in school). Pupils should also bring a refillable water bottle and those eligible for a free school meal will order from the range of cold lunch options.

Pupils will be required to attend in full school uniform and should bring the essential equipment required to learn (including PE kit). Please see the enclosed ‘Personal Appearance, Standards and Behaviour Pupil and Parent Guide’. Whilst standards of behaviour and appearance remain as normal there are additional rules and expectations around pupil movement and social distancing. Please see the enclosed ‘Stay Safe Guide - A Pupil Guide for Reopening.’

We recognise that the international pandemic has affected some families more than others. If this is the case and you would like us to know so we can support your child, please feel free to contact the school so support can and will be put in place where needed.

As with all of our initial plans, such arrangements are designed to support the safety of the entire school community and plans are subject to change should national expectations differ.

I would like to thank you for your ongoing support and I wish you all a restful summer.

Y11 Prefects

We’ll be recruiting Y11 prefects at the start of the new academic year. More information will follow about the application process and how becoming a prefect will benefit you in the future.

Uniform and Standards for September

‘You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.’

At Broadoak we believe that if you look smart then you will think smart. Our high standards of personal appearance are reflected in the attitudes of our pupils and as a result our standards of work have improved and our results have risen. Please support the school by ensuring that your child adheres to the school’s high standards of uniform and appearance when they return in September. Please read the ‘Personal Appearance, Standards and Behaviour Pupil and Parent Guide’ later in this newsletter. Y11 Leavers’ Results Day

All Y11 leavers have been sent a letter regarding the procedures for collecting exam results this year. Information can also be found on the Broadoak website under ‘Exams’:

Results will be available to collect from school on Thursday 20th August between 10.00am – 12.30m. Due to current restrictions, pupils must arrive for their specific appointment as advised in the letter. Unfortunately, parents and carers will not be permitted on site as this will break the social distancing rules.

If your child wishes another person to collect their results on his/her behalf, the school must be notified in writing by emailing [email protected].

If results are not collected on 20th August, they will be posted to your home address by 2nd class post the following day.

In the meantime, we wish you the best of luck and of course, we wish our leavers good luck in their future, whether it be at college, an apprenticeship or in employment.

Y11 Leavers’ Last Day New Y7 Induction Week: Week Beginning 17th August 2020

We look forward to welcoming our new Year 7 cohort for year’s induction programme held at Broadoak School during the week beginning 17th August 2020. Due to the current circumstances, pupils have been invited into school in ‘bubbles’ of no more than 12 pupils and for a period of 2 days. New Y7s will have received a letter with the days and times that they should attend.

During these two days, the children will be taught a variety of subjects and they will take part in a range of activities which begin with an induction session where they will meet their form tutor and of Year Mrs Eagle.

At lunchtime, all children will stay on the premises. A packed lunch will be provided but should your child wish to bring their own lunch then this will need to be brought in a throw-away bag. Your child will not need any equipment so please leave school bags at home. Please also ensure that your child brings a water bottle which they will be able to refill during social times from the water fountains in school.

Throughout the induction week, your child will be not be expected to wear uniform but please be aware that jewellery is not part of the school uniform at Broadoak and we would expect your child not to wear any during this week.

Finally, if you are driving, please drop off your child at the front of site, and for parents wishing to collect their child there will be a waiting area for parents at the rear of the school. When the children arrive they should enter school through the gym entrance to the left of the main building by following the signs.

As we were not able to hold the ‘New Parents’ Welcome Evening’ this year, there will be a video available on the school website that will give you lots of information about what to expect at Broadoak. You will also find a message from Mrs Eagle. The video will be available to view from the 20th August.

Any concerns, please email [email protected] by Monday 27th July 2020. Home Learning Super Stars

Who: Mrs Morton What: The Painted Lady by Maeve Haran Genre: Historical Fiction Year: 2007

I have always loved to read but normally struggle to find the time and during lockdown I have had the opportunity to read one book a week. Last week I read ‘The Painted Lady’ which was just fantastic. It is a historical novel that tells the story of Frances Stuart and how King Charles II of England was infatuated by this young and beautiful woman, who was envied by all women and desired by men. Frances resisted the King’s advances and would not become his mistress. Her face was used as a model for Britannia and could be found on medals, statues and coins, her face was on the fifty pence piece up until 2006. Make sure that you keep reading and expanding your knowledge throughout the summer…

Sanctions will be applied to all pupils who fail to meet the school’s standards of uniform and personal appearance. Each day staff will check that pupils are dressed and presented to the high standards expected at Broadoak School. Behaviour and Standards Parent and Pupil Guide for Reopening

Equipment School Bag Pupils should bring a sturdy school bag that is large enough to carry all belongings and other specialised items e.g. PE kit.

Pencil Case A fully stocked pencil case is essential to ensure that pupils are always prepared to work. This should include 2 black ink pens, 1 green ink pens, 2 pencils, an eraser and a ruler. Broadoak will provide a pencil case to all pupils in September. Blue ink pens, correction fluid, felt tips and pencil sharpeners are not permitted although children are encouraged to bring their own pencil crayons.

Pupil Planner This must be brought to and from school every day. Planners must be signed weekly by the pupil’s parent/carer, the pupil and the form tutor. Pupils are expected to have their planner open to the relevant page and on their desks at the start of every lesson and during form time.

Break and Lunch During this re-opening period, pupils will not have access to breaktime snacks or hot food at lunchtime. Sandwiches and cold food will be available from the canteen at lunchtime but pupils must bring a snack if they would like something to eat during breaktime. Family and sharing or multi-bags of crisps, sweets, chocolates and whole packets of biscuits are not allowed at Broadoak to promote healthy eating. Cans and fizzy drinks are also not permitted and these items will be confiscated by staff. Choose healthy snacks of a regular size.

Standards and Behaviour

Behaviour Disruptive pupils affect the learning of others due to their behaviour. If a disruptive pupil costs another pupil an hour of learning per day this would equate to 38 days (or nearly 8 weeks) per year and this will not be tolerated. Pupils who disregard the standards of behaviour expected of them or behave in an anti-social manner will receive appropriate sanctions.

Detentions Will be given to pupils whose effort, attitude or behaviour fall below the expectations of staff at Broadoak School. Staff may detain pupils at lunchtime or after school for up to 30 minutes without giving notice to parents, although the school endeavours to inform parents of every detention.

At Broadoak we will continue to operate a ‘Remove’ model where pupils are removed from the lesson if they continue to disrupt despite verbal warnings from staff. Pupils who are removed from lessons and those who self-remove will automatically receive a 1 hour after-school detention.

A serious view is also taken of any anti-social behaviour committed by our pupils on the way to or from school.

Covid 19 Guidance Pupils who: • Spit, purposely cough in another persons’ vicinity or other deliberate behaviours that increase the risk of spreading infection e.g. disposing of used tissues in an unsafe manner • refuse to adhere to social distancing measures e.g. 1m rules • display behaviour that is purposely contrary to the Covid 19 control measures in place • leave the classroom without permission …will be sent immediately to student services and further disciplinary action will be taken. Please see the Behaviour Policy Addendum on the school’s website.

Safeguarding • We understand that pupils may have had different experiences during the Coronavirus pandemic and that this may affect how the pupils reintegrate into the school environment and its routines. There will be an induction session on the first day back to support this. • We are also acutely aware that many children will be hugely anxious over the return to school and the new rules, routines, measures. Support strategies and activities will assist with these issues. • Please note that TAs will be in the classroom to support pupils’ learning but will not be able to sit as close to the children as usual. • Members of the safeguarding team will be available for pupil meetings where requested.
