Accessing Work from Home
Please use the link below to access all of the off-site curriculum work that has been set for our pupils. There are also useful links to additional extra curricular activities, and a large focus on mind-fullness and well-being. If you are experiencing any difficulty accessing the work online, please contact the school direct on 01384 816800 and ask for Mrs Amie Cooper.
Any child that does not have access to a device / internet at home will be provided with a paper copy of the work set.
Message from the Headteacher for March - June 2020
Dear Parents and Carers,
I hope that everyone is coping during these impossibly difficult times. I know I am struggling to make sense of this new world but please be assured that the well being of everyone connected with Rosewood is at the forefront of my mind.
At the moment school is shut to pupils because we think that children are safer at home at the moment. As soon as I can be assured of everyone's safety I will start to open the school to pupils.
As regards free school meals I hope this situation can be sorted very quickly. I know there was some confusion about the safeguarding telephone number, for which I apologise, but I think this is sorted now.
If you do have any safeguarding concerns or indeed any concerns at all, please do not hesitate to call this number and we will do our very best to help.
I shall be updating the website as often as I can and you will see we have put quite a few links to work and information that I hope you will find helpful.
This situation cannot last forever and I really hope we can get back to normal soon. School is not the same anymore and I am missing the lads believe it or not!
Again, if there is any help we can give, please call the safeguarding telephone number.
David Kirk
Free School Meal Information April 2020
Dear Parent/Carer
Free School Meals Update to Parents/Carers: 6th April 2020
Many of you will have heard that over the weekend the Government have done a U turn and agreed to supply Free School Meal vouchers during the Easter holidays.
The school has applied for vouchers but are still waiting for them to arrive from the central supplier. We are expecting that they will be here by the end of this week and will send them out or email them to you as soon as they arrive.
In the meantime if any families are in real crisis and have no other support from family or friends, then they can ring the Dudley Council for Voluntary Services helpline on 01384 573381
Kind regards
David Kirk
Head Teacher
Supporting our NHS
Rosewood School would like to say a BIG thank you to Darren Parsons and team at 'Yeoman Pressings Ltd' for donating materials to allow us to continue to make visor's to support the NHS. So far Rosewood have made and donated over 600 visors to local hospitals, hospices, pharmacies, care homes, and local small businesses allowing them to continue as 'normal'.
School Closure
If school is required to close, whether that a partial closure, full closure or to individual pupils, we want to continue to offer our support to both pupils and parents/carers.
If there is anything that you feel you need support in whether that's a safeguarding concern or trouble accessing a piece of work on the school website, please contact Mrs Guider on 07955769391 and she will either direct you accordingly or notify the appropriate member of staff to get back in touch with you, or support your query direct.
We wish to remain as 'in touch' as possible as we appreciate these are uncertain times and we can't wait to get back to 'normal'.
