UPDATE #8:

Dear students, parents and carers

The issues with our heating and hot water in main block have now been resolved with an initial temporary solution, so all students will return on Friday as planned.

Our external caterers will continue to offer cold food only and only at lunchtime on Friday - Wednesday, with hot food returning on Thursday. We are sorry for this ongoing inconvenience which is out of our control.

We’d like to thank students for the way in which they have managed the start of term in and out of school, and parents and carers for their adaptability and support. We are looking forward to having everyone back together at Larkmead.

Best wishes

Jonathan Dennett

Headteacher
