From September 2021, we will revert back to our normal start and finish times. The children can enter the classrooms from 8.50 am for start task. The official end of the school day is 3.15 pm.

We ask that everyone follows the current government guidance and any additional requirements identified in our shcool Covid Risk Assessment. This information iwll be communicated with parents via newsletters and texts.

Please be mindful that some windows will need to be kept open for ventilation.  Please make sure your child is dressed warm enough and is wearing a school jumper. As the weather gets colder, you may also feel that your child would benefit from wearing a vest or t-shirt undeneath their school polo shirt.

We are still in a pandemic so it is important that we put measures in place to minimise risk and to help keep everyone safe. Please observe the following:

1.  Only parents of the new reception children enter the classroom in the mornings. All children will be collected from the playground at the end of the school day. On the days that reception chidlrren finish at 12.00 and 1.00 pm, parents will collect their chidlren via reception.

2.  Keep contact with people outside your bubble to a minimum when on the school grounds.

3.  It is not compulsory but you may chose to wear a face covering.

4.  Communication between staff and parents is very important. Ideally do this via an email  or telephone call. Staff are teaching during the day and their emails are not checked so if it is very important then please phone the school office.

5.  To help keep office staff safe, please make sure that your child brings in everything they need for the day.

Do not send your child to school if they are unwell.

If you need to contact the school to inform them about a Covid-19 case as outlined below then please email Miss Long on head@broadtown.wilts.sch.uk

Broad Town Primary School is a very small rural school on the outskirts of Royal Wotton Bassett. We are an inclusive school and the development of the whole child is central to our school’s Christian ethos. Staff are very skilled, dedicated and have high expectations of themselves and of the children they work with.

It is important for us to make the children’s time at school very special and memorable. We are very proud of our Forest School status which enables children to explore and learn outdoors. It supports the children in developing important life skills such as team work, problem solving and resilience as well as building confidence and self-esteem.

Our website will provide you with lots of information about the school. If you are considering which school is going to be right for your child and would like to visit our school then please make an appointment with the school office.
