Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Dear Parent/Guardian
We have been asked to circulate the following information by RCT
1. Timescales for the next round of applications for emergency childcare:-
Applications for emergency childcare for the three week period Monday 29th June to Friday 17th July will be going live on the Council’s website from 8am on Friday 19th June.
- Parents / carers need to apply asap – applications close at 11:59pm on Sunday 21st June.
- Emergency childcare will be in the child’s usual school setting and places are strictly subject to availability.
- Late applications will not be accepted. Places are strictly subject to availability and parents who miss the deadline of Sunday 21st June need to contact their child’s school directly to establish whether or not their child can be accommodated.
2. People who must apply:-
- Key / essential workers must re-apply as requirements / shift patterns etc. change regularly and we need to establish whether the numbers of applications for each school can be accommodated.
- Parents / carers of vulnerable learners and parents / carers of special school pupils who are already attending an emergency childcare setting do not need to re-apply. Their attendance (subject to availability) will be ongoing, but they must notify their child’s school if they no longer require a place.
- Any parents / carers of vulnerable learners and parents / carers of special school pupils who are not currently attending for emergency childcare must make an initial application for a place.
Emergency childcare places are strictly subject to availability and making an application does not guarantee an emergency childcare place.
Kind regards
Dear Parent/Guardian
As you will be aware, our school will be re-opening on Monday 29th June but class sizes will be limited to a maximum of 8 per class per day. We therefore have to plan class intake and class sizes for the next four weeks so that all children in all years will attend for at least three sessions over the four week period left of term.
In the circumstances, we have today sent a text and an e-mail to all the parents that have registered an e-mail address with us asking you to either click on the link https://forms.gle/zS2u5hDBmeg1UYQ77 contained in the letter posted and e-mailed on Monday evening via a google account or alternatively send us an e-mail at Admin.capcochprimary@rctcbc.gov.uk (if you have not already done so) to inform us as to whether your child will be returning on the 29th June or in September so that we can plan our classes as soon as possible.
Many thanks

Today, the Welsh Government announced that pupils will have the opportunity to return to school from 29th June for 4 weeks before the summer holidays. Pupils will be taught in small groups but will not be in school every day. Only a third of the pupils will be in school at any one time. This is the opportunity for pupils to see their teachers, reflect and catch up on their learning and prepare for September. Every child will be different and schools will allow for individual family circumstances and parental choice as to whether children attend before the summer.
Further information will be shared with all parents and carers over the coming weeks as we receive the guidance from Welsh Government
