The following tables will outline the strategies implemented to fulfil the requirements of the principles, and these will be reinforced throughout the School with clear signage:
BUBBLES AND SOCIAL DISTANCING

Strategy
What is in place
How it will be implemented
To introduce bubbles to separate pupil cohorts
• All pupils belong to a year-group bubble, and boarders also belong to a Boarding House bubble • All year-groups have classroom zones • There will be specific study spaces allocated to each year-group • Lockers will not be available in general, to avoid close contact and moving out of allocated zones
• All pupils will be kept in their bubbles, including for all lessons, risk-assessed co-curricular activities, Assemblies and Chapel, and staggered dining
To implement social distancing within and outside of bubbles
• Demarcated areas aid 2-metre social distancing • Seating allows for 1 or 2-metre distancing, as required • Dining facilities, classrooms, and communal spaces have been reconfigured • Movement around School is regulated
• Everyone is required to maintain social distancing • Adults should keep to 2-metre social distancing, where possible • Pupils within a bubble should keep to at least 1-metre social distancing, or use other mitigations • There will be one-way systems in place in corridors and staggered lunchtimes
