Dear Parents
Emergency Contacts
It is important that we have up to date contact details for you. This will allow us to contact you either in an emergency for your child or if we need to contact you for an unplanned closure.
In the event of us having to close the school for an unforeseen event, e.g. bad weather, no heating etc. we will be able to inform you in a number of ways as detailed below.
Groupcall
A text message will be sent to the mobile number that you have provided as early as possible on the day of closure.
School Website – www.parsloesprimary.co.uk
The school website will be updated as early as possible both with details of the closure and also when we will re-open.
School Open Check
This is a London Grid for Learning service that enables us to up date our school status which parents can check in the following way:
• Visit the borough’s website, www.lbbd.gov.uk and click on the link schools on the left hand side under useful
links
• Click on the link school closures
• Click on the link school status
You will then see the current status of our school.
If you do not have access to the internet or you prefer to use the phone you can call the following number to get the relevant information.
020 8408 7508 - You will need our school’s DfE code which is 3012064.
It would be useful to try this out before an emergency closure so that you are used to the procedure.
Should you require any further information or you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Fairweather in the school office who will be happy to help you.
Please keep this information for future use.
Yours sincerely
Mrs A Lipski
Head Teacher
