Will children who attend school receive face to face teaching?

The Executive Director of Catholic Education WA requires the following for all students either at school or at home.
· The education provided to all students must be high quality and equitable.
· Teachers will provide teaching and learning opportunities to students through one mode of delivery. This means your child may not be taught by your class teacher for the entire day as they are also providing support to those who are working offsite.

St Kieran has asked their cleaning contractor to provide a cleaner who will work during school hours. They will clean all door handles, light switches, rails, all high usage areas and outside play equipment during the day. The school has reallocated resources to pay for this.

I have been told that parents are not allowed on the school site. Is this correct?

Yes, under the new guidelines provided to all schools, parents are not permitted on the school site at the moment. That means that there are no assemblies to attend, no face to face meetings and no parents allowed on the school site until further notice.
