Principal’s Update – 11/05/2020

Many families will have heard the Prime Minister’s address on Sunday 11th May in which he stated that:

“At the earliest by June 1 – after half term – we believe we may be in a position to begin the phased reopening of shops and to get primary pupils back into schools, in stages, beginning with reception, Year 1 and Year 6. Our ambition is that secondary pupils facing exams next year will get at least some time with their teachers before the holidays.”

Tavistock College will continue to offer places for vulnerable children and those of key workers, but we understand that many other parents will want to know more about when their children will return to school. Schools across the country will also have heard this news for the first time on Sunday and over the course of the next week or two, we will be reviewing the detailed guidance the government has said it will provide. We will then take any action required to open the school to the year groups identified in a safe way. When we are in a position to do so, we will provide information on the website and in other communications so that you  will know exactly when Tavistock College will be able to once again offer a place for your children.
