January School Reopening - IMPORTANT NOTICE
1st January 2021
Dear Parents/Carers
I hope you have had an enjoyable Christmas holiday.
As I am sure you are aware of the recent announcement by the government to keep secondary schools shut nationally for an additional two weeks for the majority of students. This means that the school will only be open on the 4th January to the children of ‘critical workers’ or those children who have been assessed under section 17 of the Children Act and have been deemed in need. The table below highlights the reopening time scales for ease of reference but for the majority of students in year groups 7 – 10 the school will not be open until Monday 18th January, for the majority of students in Year 11 the school will not be open until Monday 11th January.
In relation to home learning Year 11 students will be contacted by their tutor on Monday 4th January and will begin their live learning through Microsoft Teams on Tuesday 5th January. All other year groups will for the week 4th January – 8th January use the school website where work is available in the Student Tab – Covid 19 – Home Learning Link If students would like an actual workbook they can email their year team and arrange for a time for collection.
Year 7, email: Y7PastoralTeam@themarvellcollege.com
Year 8, email: Y8PastoralTeam@themarvellcollege.com
Year 9, email: Y9PastoralTeam@themarvellcollege.com
Year 10, email: Y10PastoralTeam@themarvellcollege.com

For the week 11th January – 15th January we will send workbooks to all students who are in years 7 – 10 and not in school through the post. These will be sent out on Thursday 7th January.
