Covid 19 Guidance

The Governors and staff of Mounts Bay Academy are committed to do whatever is necessary to keep every member of our Academy community safe and well.

The current government guidance is that all families should conduct a Lateral Flow Coronavirus testing regime at least twice a week.

All students receive our broad and balanced curriculum which will consist of a combination of face to face teaching, live streamed lessons and self guided online learning depending on circumstances. To keep everyone safe students supply their own headphones to be able to take part in streamed lessons.

We endeavour to allow students to have access to separate outdoor areas during break and lunchtimes, however we must expect that on some occasions this will not be possible.

All of this is supported by a rigorous sanitisation and cleaning regime throughout the school day with a deep clean taking place of the campus each evening.

Safety must come first, and dependent on government guidance we may require students to wear a face covering. .

Students will need each day:

School bag
Waterproof Coat
Face Covering – to be worn at all times in the school buildings
Resealable plastic bag for face covering
Uniform
PE kit on a PE day
Headphones
Pencil Case
Pens (Blue and black biro plus black fine liner)
Pencils – HB and 2B
Coloured pencils
Calculator (Casio 83GTX or 85GTX is recommended)
Rubber
Pencil Sharpener
Small pair of scissors
Glue stick
Geometry Set
Ruler (30cm)
Water Bottle
Fully charged iPad (we suggest supplementing this with a low cost power bank as we cannot ensure access to charging points)
Old oversize t-shirt to protect uniform during Creative Arts practicals
