Sorry, has this already been done?
As I understand the guidance, clinically vulnerable are to carry on, pay particular attention to the rules and lots of hand washing. Quite tough on them when last time they were prioritised as a must wfh at our school.
ECV should get letters and should stay at home.
How does that affect you being able to stay open?. If the criteria is the same as last time, I have 5 staff, about 5%.
On top of that though, I have a handful who didn't have official shielding letters last time but who did have a doctor's letter advising them to shield. Staying open becomes really tricky if they all stay at home. We were able to follow the advice last time because a) it was reasonable to do so and b) we were operating on a skeleton staff in school and there was work to do from home. That won't be the case this time.
I fear we will be tripped up by having been too decent and not asking too many questions last time. What did your school do with those not officially ECV but who had some other form of medical advice?
