Early Years Coronavirus Information
We will do everything we can to support parents, carers and pupils through this time. If you need any support or advice please use the school admin email address as we cannot guarantee the phone will be answered.
Helping Your Child Understand
The children may begin to realise over the next few days the severity of the isolation they are going to live within for a while. It is normal for them to feel angry, sad, frustrated or disappointed about this. Below is a social story and a therapeutic story to help them understand.

Accessing Provision
Following careful consideration of the responses to the questionnaire regarding accessing provision for year groups 2, 3 4 and 5, we have now confirmed our offer to those who expressed an interest. We are now at capacity and, with the exception of the children of critical workers, those in Reception and those in Year 6, we are not able to accept children who do not already have a place in existing bubbles in our school provision.
We are still committed to supporting our whole school community, both those physically in school and those who are not. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with your child’s class teacher on the class emails, or via the office on admin@beaford-primary.devon.sch.uk if there is anything you need, or to feedback on your child’s learning and wellbeing.
Home Learning
Teachers will provide a weekly outline of activities your child could undertake. These will be personalised for each class and may include reading, counting, times tables, phonics, topic projects, suggested websites, writing or maths activities.
You can provide feedback to your child’s teacher via a generic email address. These are:
Ladybirds- ladybirds@beafordprimary.org

Otters- otters@beafordprimary.org
Owls- owls@beafordprimary.org
