🛑📘📕🛑

At this stage we will only be booking in learners with upcoming tests as we need to clear our backlog 🗓

We will resume other lessons as soon as possible 🚧

We also aim to minimise the risk of transmission, in particular to year 11 and 12 students with upcoming exams 😷 including our youngest

👫👬🧑‍🤝‍🧑👭

We are both double vaxed 💉💉 and believe it is best to wait until the 80% benchmark to resume lessons, except for upcoming drive tests 🛣
