Dear Parents, On Friday 26th March, Fr Chris Vipers and the Diocesan Education Service held an online Diocesan Mass for Schools in the Westminster Cathedral Crypt. Ordinarily this mass would have been held in person, with All Saints students in attendance but unfortunately social distancing measures prevented that from happening this year. However, the advantage of this is that the mass was live streamed and uploaded onto YouTube, meaning that the opportunity to join the mass and celebrate can be extended to our entire school community. We hope that you and your child will find the time during Holy Week to join the wider community in worship - in a powerful example of our diocesan family coming together in faith, after what has been an unprecedented year. Please access the recording by following this link. It will expire on Easter Sunday. Have a blessed Holy Week and a joyous Easter. All Saints

In line with Government guidance, students will return to school from w/c Monday 8th March. This will be a phased return and further details will be issued shortly. This phased return of students is to allow us to carry out the necessary Lateral Flow Testing on all pupils as stipulated by the DFE. In order to return to school safely, whilst minimising the spread of Covid-19, all secondary school students will be tested three times upon returning to school from Monday 8th March 2021. After an initial programme of three tests in school, students will be provided with two rapid tests to use each week at home. Staff in secondary schools will also be supplied with test kits to self swab and test themselves twice a week at home. Further information on Lateral Flow Testing can be found here. The latest information from the Government on returning to school can be found here. In order to be tested, students MUST provide parental / guardian consent. Students who do not consent cannot be tested. Please do so by completing this online consent form. We will be in contact with you with further details about your child's return to school. In the meantime, if you have any questions please email covid@allsaintscc.org.uk
