Summary	of	the main	Covid 19Pandemic and lockdown restrictions
achievements ofthe charity during the year			This academic year started in the middle ofthe pandemic. Having had a whole term of lockdown prior to the summer holiday period, we were able to
			come back to face to face teaching in the school in September 2020. To
			comply with the social distancing and government recommendations many
			changes were introduced (one way systems in buildings, staggered start and
			finish times and breaks, face masks on site, ventilated classrooms, hand
			sanitising, cleaning/disinfecting all surfaces, enforcing quarantines for pupils
			with symptoms or testing positive for Covid, their families and fellow pupils. )
			All government guidelines were adhered to. For the Spring term we once
			again had to resort to online teaching but were able to return to school for
			the summer term.
			This academic year there were 346 registered pupils and 36teachers
			Three new teachers joined at the beginning ofthe year and one left at the
			end ofthe year.
			Due to Covid 19restrictions events which would normally involve the whole
			school congregating in the school hall had to be cancelled. Parents were not
			allowed on site. Activities were restricted to class 'bubbles', and we had to
			think ofdifferent ways ofdoing things while keeping everybody safe.
			Instead ofthe annual Nativity play, children from year 2 dressed up and
			photos depicting the various scenes were taken. Special care was taken so
			that they could stand at a distance from each other and yet by careful
			positioning ofthe camera it would still look as though they were part ofthe
			intimate group.
			Father Christmas (in a face mask) walked to each class just to wish the
			children a Happy Christmas. A token bag of'gifts' (prepared weeks earlier)
			was left so that each child could take something on their way home. Pre-
			Christmas celebrations are usually held in the hall and last a couple of hours.
			During the spring term lockdown teachers had to resort to different methods
			ofremote teaching —videoconferencing, or setting and marking submitted
			work. Itwas very difficult time as most teachers also have children who also
			were expected to take part in lessons, so some lessons were held at
			different times. All classes apart from the very youngest had some form of
			teaching during this period.
			During the Summer term, a return to classroom lessons on school premises,
			however without any extracurricular activities.
			The end ofyear was reduced to teacher organised classroom games and
			quizzes instead ofthe usual end ofterm performances.
			Throughout this year our main aim and challenge was to try and continue
			holding lessons as best as was possible whilst adhering to the government
			guidelines. The pupil and teacher attendance during the first and last term
			was obviously lower than normal, because ofquarantine requirements. We
			all had to be aware ofthe toll ofthe extended period ofthe pandemic, and the effect ofthis on the staff, pupils and their families.
			The schools 70'" anniversary celebrations (already a year late) will now be
			held in a few years time to celebrate 75years.
			Once again this year there were no formal GCSE or AL examinations.
			Children who would normally have sat the examination had to submit course
			work which was forwarded on to the Polish Educational society and their
			English school for marking and grading.
			At the end ofthe year 11Teachers and Committee members were awarded
			(Polish) Educational Committee Medals for long service.
			A new deputy head teacher was also appointed.
