Dear families,

Thank you for your support this afternoon.

Just before 3pm we received instructions from the police to keep students and staff inside the school at the end of the school day. We made sure that the site remained secure.

Students stayed with their class teachers, and in line with our usual policies, students were instructed not to use their phones.

When we heard from the police that we could allow students to leave we did so.

At no time was there any unauthorised person on the school site, and our school community was not at any risk.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

Mrs Yapp

Headteacher
