A SCHOOL is undertaking a consultation to increase its admission intake by a whole classroom per year. Meetings have been taking place between Essex County Council and Ormiston Academies Trust, the group which runs Ormiston Rivers in Burnham, over recent months. To satisfy the future requirements for secondary school places defined within Essex county’s ten-year plan, the academy is asking parents and staff if the school should increase capacity by an additional 30 pupils.

LOCKDOWN restrictions across England have begun to be eased. The first stage of the Government s roadmap out of lockdown, implemented on March 8, saw schools reopen. But it also brought changes for socialising and meeting up with loved ones, albeit outdoors for now. Under the new rules you are allowed to meet one person from outside your household or bubble in the great outdoors. You can also sit down for a coffee, drink or a picnic in an outside place with one person from another household. Social distancing measures should still be adhered to. Although the weather is still a little chilly we know residents will be still keen to see friends and family members outside their household.
