Tuesday 15th December Update- We will be open to years 10,12 &13

14/12/20

Hi Michael - central government have made their position 100% clear: schools, nationwide, need to remain open. We are simply following that direction.

13/12/20

Hi Leanne - give us a ring in the morning. You are not at risk of a fine but we’d love it if your other child came in to school. I have no doubt that some parents are worried but please get in touch and we can talk it through.

13/12/20

Sorry to hear that Leanne - no doubt the Local Authority have made their decision in good faith. We take our lead from the Department for Education which has said schools should remain open wherever possible. We have around 95% of our staff fit and ready to work so we’re open.

13/12/20

Hi Allan - we are an academy and despite good relations with the Local Authority we are not bound by their recommendations. We are open and looking forward to seeing the students this week.

We will be open on Monday 14th December to Y7, 10, 11, 12 and 13. Covid cases permitting, we intend to remain open to those year groups until 3.35pm on Thursday 17th December. Hope this clears up some of the confusion this evening.

Year 7 Transition page

Welcome to Harris Greenwich

 

We recognise that starting a new school can be both an exciting and challenging time for students and parents/carers.

 

Due to COVID-19, we will not be able to offer the same transition activities that we would usually do at this time of year. However, we will endeavour to make your transition to secondary school as smooth as possible and are working closely with your primary schools to ensure you are fully prepared to start your new journey.

 

We will therefore be providing the following:

  • The HAGR Transition Team will gather information from primary schools so staff can prepare for your child’s arrival
  • A welcome pack will be sent to all parents/carers to share relevant and useful information (also available to view via the school website)
  • A senior member of staff will arrange a meeting to speak with both student and parents/carers. This will be a time to talk through the school Code of Conduct and ask any questions you may have.
  • A virtual tour of the school which will be uploaded onto this page of the website will enable you to view the school and meet key members of staff at your leisure
  • A video introducing our Special Educational Needs (SEND) team will be available in the upcoming weeks
  • A summer Newsletter will be sent home towards the end of the term. This will include summer ‘challenges’ to keep students and parents/carers active during the summer break!

 

Please do have a look through the information on this page and get in touch if you have any questions.

 

We look forward to meeting you in September!
