Coronavirus Information

During the Coronavirus outbreak we will be using this page to provide information on the situation at Marjory Kinnon School, and for support for our pupils and their families.  We will add information to this page regularly.  This page includes copies of our letters to parents and links to advice for parents, pupils and staff about Coronavirus.  Please click on the links on the right for details of homework and other activities for pupils, both educational and fun.  You will also find a list of websites which have useful advice on Coronavirus for parents of SEN pupils.

Supporting Wellbeing

In this unprecedented time, we are going to experience a range of emotions, sometimes confusion, numbness or even no clearly identifiable feelings.  This is all normal.  London Borough of Hounslow have put together some ideas for young people, families and staff, to support them at this time:

LBH - Emotional wellbeing tips for children and families

LBH - Emotional wellbeing tips for staff

LBH - Helpful services for families

LBH - Helpful services for young people

For pupils with ASD, food can be a difficult issue. This booklet provides suggestions for parents and carers to support their children during this time.
