The dfe posted this yesterday

Actions for early years and childcare providers during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak - GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-early-years-and-childcare-closures/coronavirus-covid-19-early-years-and-childcare-closures)

Then it links to this document

Contingency framework: education and childcare settings (excluding universities) - GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-contingency-framework-for-education-and-childcare-settings/contingency-framework-education-and-childcare-settings-excluding-universities)

Which says early years can open for all children it also say children over 5 who are eligible to be in school full time can attend wraparound care but doesn't say if that means for their number hours.

The list of keyworkers are here

Thanks Fussy.

We've just gone into tier 3, so it's pretty much life as it has been.

I'm rewriting my corona policy to add that if your child is not 100% or not quite themselves ( 'teething', snotty, tired etc ) to consider if it is appropriate for them to attend and to please consider keeping them home and getting them tested! As if they are contagious and pass it on, and I have to shut, then everyone is inconvenienced.

Take care all xx
