Our Fortnightly Literacy Bulletin is back for 2021….

Take note….there will be a quiz on Word of the Week and the Roots of words… Take a look at the Literacy page on the website (under Learning & Support) and you will find all the literacy bulletins since September 2020.

We’re excited to announce that our first EGS Covid Testing Site is now up and running within Upper School. Mr Lamb started it all off by being the first member of staff to be tested.

Virtual / Online Consultation Evenings

For remote meetings you will need:

• A device with a microphone and speaker/headphones
• A compatible up-to-date browser:
  iPhone/iPad: Safari (Note: there is a known issue joining video calls using any iOS 14.2 devices to iOS 14.3, or use and alternative device)
  Android: Chrome or Firefox
  Windows: Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge (Chromium)
  Mac: Safari, Chrome or Firefox
  Linux: Chrome or Firefox

We recommend using your smartphone for video appointments. If you do not have a smartphone with a front facing camera, use a laptop or computer with a webcam and use a headset (or earphones with a microphone) to reduce echo.

As we are now in Tier 5, the school will be closed to all pupils, other than those of critical workers or those who have been invited in (pre-arranged with the school), until we are notified otherwise by Government.

We will be delivering the curriculum as ‘Blended Learning’ which is a mix of Live Online Lessons and Google Classrooms.

Students, please make sure you keep up to date with all your work (Google Classroom) and that you sign in to any online live lessons that are scheduled.
