Any parents/carers of year 6 pupils, who wish to apply for free school transport for their child/children from September 2021, should do so before 31st May 2021. Applications can be made online at www.shropshire.gov.uk or over the phone with the Council’s Customer Service Team by calling 0345 6789008. Alternatively, should you require a paper copy of the application form, please do not hesitate to contact the school or Passenger Transport directly via email, schooltransport@shropshire.gov.uk or over the phone on the above telephone number. It is important to explain that, if the application is not received by 31st May 2021, the Authority may be unable to provide transport for the beginning of the autumn term 2021 and parents/carers will need to make their own transport arrangements.

Positive COVID-19 Cases – Easter Holidays
Dear Parents/Carers,
The Department for Education have asked us to make you aware of the following information and relevant arrangements regarding positive COVID-19 cases in the holidays:
|
For the first 6 days after the end of term, schools are not asked to be on-call at all times. Our school admin team will check the admin emails once a day from Friday 2nd April to Wednesday 7th April.
Where pupils are required to self-isolate due to testing positive or due to contact with a positive case after Wednesday 7th April, we do not need to be informed about their absence until Monday 19th April.
When do I need to contact school?
If your child develops symptoms of COVID-19 within 48 hours of being in school and then tests positive for COVID-19, please email the admin address (admin@baschurch.shropshire.sch.uk) as soon as possible with the following information –
· Pupil Name and class
· The date the symptoms began
· The date your child was last in school
· The date the test was carried out
· The date the result was received
We will then use this information to contact Public Health England. If your child’s test result comes back negative, you do not need to inform school.
If we need to ask you to isolate, we will do so via class dojo.
If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Health and Safety Message
For health and safety reasons, it is important that children do not sit or walk on the school wall at the beginning and end of the school day, whilst under parental supervision. We would like to encourage all parents to help us reinforce these rules. Thank you.
