OCC/CEF are also acting as a 'brokerage' services so that we can support key worker parents/carers who need to send their children to school in the event that their local school closes. Also, just to clarify, only one parent needs to be a key worker to access education in an educational setting.
If you receive any queries from your residents about the availability of school places, please contact us using the email address Schoolplaceavailability@oxfordshire.gov.uk.
Please also signpost residents to our website https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/residents/schools/emergency-school-closures
for our latest information about schools open for vulnerable children and children of key workers.
