Dear Parent/Carer,
I hope you are well and would like to start by thanking you for all of your support since the launch of Black Country Alternative Provision as we approach the end of Spring Half-Term 1; as always it is much appreciated. I am writing to remind you of arrangements for the end of Spring Half-Term 1 and the start of Spring Half-Term 2.
Firstly, a reminder that Spring Half-Term 1 finishes on Friday 14th February and that this is a full school day. A reminder too that Spring Half-Term 2 begins on Monday 24th February for all students.
Secondly, if you need anything from us over the holiday period, our Designated Safeguarding Lead Nikki Fernandes will be working at certain points and as always, can be contacted directly at: nfernandes@lawnswoodcampus.co.uk. If a child is at risk of immediate harm, then please call 999, or if you need any further support around safeguarding concerns, you can call Wolverhampton MASH (Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub) on 01902 555392. Fuller details around safeguarding generally can also be found on the dedicated section of our new Black Country Alternative Provision website.
If you or your child find yourself experiencing any form of mental health crisis, you can call NHS 111 which has now introduced a bespoke option for urgent mental health support (option two). Please note that if you would prefer to text this service, you can do this using the number 07860 025 281.
Don’t forget that you can now also follow the latest updates and get in touch with us on a wide variety of social media platforms by following the links below:

As usual, please feel free to contact me directly at a.wakefield@theyestrust.org
if there are any further questions I can assist with in any way regarding this letter.
Yours faithfully,
Andy Wakefield
Assistant Director of Education, Youth Engagement Schools Trust.
