This means it’s your legal duty as a parent to send your child to school regularly if they are registered at one.* *If you have concerns about your child attending, you should discuss these with your school or college.* *If a child or young person has been advised to isolate or reduce their social contact by their specialist, due to the nature of their medical condition or treatment rather than because of the pandemic, they should continue to follow the advice of their specialist.* [ Courageous Advocacy: Children in Need](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/news/2021-11-24-courageous-advocacy-children-in-need) [Just Giving at St Mary's ](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/news/2021-12-10-just-giving-at-st-mary-s) ### Events, Blogs & Galleries - [Calendar](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/calendar) - [Events](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/events) - [Gallery](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [Blogs](https://st-marys-colton.staffs.sch.uk/news-events/blogs) ![St Mary's C.E.
