COVID-19: update 9 July 2020
Schools that are able to do so, will safely reopen from the first week of September, with all schools to reopen from September 14.
Local plans and preparations are underway between the council and schools in the area to review risk assessments, processes and systems to ensure individual schools can welcome pupils back safely in line with guidance by Welsh Government.
Schools which can do so will reopen from the first week of term.
Some specific groups of learners might need to be prioritised during this week, such as Year 7, 12, 13 and Special Units for secondary, special units for early years and Year 6.
Parents will receive more specific information from their school and the council as it becomes available.
From September 14, school attendance will be compulsory, parents are asked to contact their school if a pupil is unable to attend to discuss further.
