December 18, 2020 - 959 views

Conwy County Borough Council have published details of their back-to-school plans for the January term following the Christmas holidays and the increase in the Coronavirus restrictions to Tier 4 from December 28th.

On Monday 4th January and Tuesday 5th January, schools in Conwy will not be open to learners.

These 2 days will be for pre-planned inset Days and for schools to assess their staffing levels and to consider local transmission rates of the virus. There is an expectation that the number of cases will rise over the Christmas period.

By Wednesday 6th January, all schools are expected to return to regular opening unless there are public health and safety reasons or issues with staff availability.

In the eventuality that a school has to revert to blended learning, provision for vulnerable learners and keyworker childcare will be available onsite.

The council have warned that these arrangements are subject to change depending on the local circumstances of your child’s school.
