Dear Families
Having reviewed our staffing availability for tomorrow, Tuesday 1 February 2022, we would continue to ask Year 8 and 9 to work remotely for an additional day. Teachers will be available throughout the lessons to answer questions and provide support. Thankfully, due to the shortened isolation period, we will have sufficient numbers of staff back in school for Year 8 and 9 to be able to return to school on Wednesday 2 February 2022.
Dear Parents & Carers
As part of our continued building work we will need to turn the power off in school and shut down our servers over the weekend. This process will start this evening (Friday 28 January 2022) at 15:30. As a result our phone system will not be in operation. Should you need to contact school urgently please email us at
Dear Parent/Carer,
I am writing to update you on the current impact of Covid-19 on St John Plessington Catholic College and our plans to address this. You will be aware from the school’s communications that we have made every effort to maintain full opening to all our students whilst maintaining an environment that is as safe as possible. We have had continued liaison with the Local Authority and Wirral Outbreak Hub to ensure that we are taking every action necessary to minimise disruption.
Dear Parents and Carers,
You may be aware that rates of COVID-19 in Wirral seem to be very slowly decreasing. However, they are still very high and local schools are still experiencing COVID-19 outbreaks. As we are also in the Winter season, viruses other than COVID will be circulating, so local schools will face a huge challenge in attempting to reduce the risk of infections spreading.
Dear Year 7 Parents and Carers
It is with pleasure that I am able to say that our Year 7 students have settled really well over the past term and in many ways it feels like they have been with us a long time already! Thank you for all your support in helping to make the transition smooth and a public thank you to the Year 7 team - Ms Breen, Ms Noone, Ms Gascoigne and the form teachers for all their hard work and commitment.
Dear Families
I am writing to remind you of our expectations and standards with regards to uniform and appearance. The rules are very straightforward:
4 January 2022
Dear Parent/Carer
Attendance and punctuality at SJP
At SJP, we value the support and cooperation that we receive from our parents in ensuring that our students fulfil their potential. As you are aware, parents are responsible for ensuring full time, regular and punctual attendance of their child, who is of compulsory school age, suitable to their age, ability, aptitude and any special needs they may have at school or otherwise. Regular and punctual attendance of students at school is both a legal requirement and essential for students to maximise their educational opportunities.
Dear Parents/Carers
Flu and Covid-19 Immunisations
Please be aware that we have the NHS immunisation team coming in next week to complete a catch up session for the Flu Nasal Spray and also to administer first and second doses of the Covid-19 vaccinations.
Dear Families
It has been a pleasure to welcome all year groups back to school this week. We will have conducted more than 1600 tests by the end of the week, and our students have been a credit to themselves, their families and our school.
Dear Parents & Carers
As we enter a new term, please can I take this opportunity to remind you of our policy regarding taking family holidays during term time.
Dear Families
I would like to start by wishing you a very Happy New Year and hope that you have an enjoyable and peaceful Christmas.
