What our customers can expect from us:
• Studio S and and The Senate Group have undertaken Risk Assessments and taken very possible step to mitigate the risk of Covid-19 transmission in accordance with the guidance of the Health and Safety Executive, Public Health England and the Government in terms of making all of our premises ‘Covid Secure’.
• Social distancing will be maintained at all times by Studio S staff, and we will ensure that children and adults attending our classes also abide by social distancing protocols.
• We will clean and sanitise all areas used at the end of each class.
• We have chosen to utilise a hospital standard cleaning chemical for this purpose, the product name is Salvesan.
• Should any member of staff exhibit signs or symptoms of the Covid-19 virus, he/she will not be allowed to attend work and we will notify all Studio S customers.
• All Studio S staff will undergo a temperature test at the beginning of each shift and will be sent home if necessary. All staff are also required to undertake Lateral Flow Testing twice weekly.
• Staff uniforms will be washed after each shift.
• Queueing areas will be clearly marked and must be adhered to.
• Staff will not be available for conversation before and after classes due to cleaning requirements. Should you wish to communicate with Studio S staff, please use the following number for calls and text messages: 07503 642802. We will also create a Whatsapp group for Studio S parents, please send a text to request admission to this group.
• Class numbers will remain low according to Government advice.
• Class places must be booked in advance.
• Our Café will SOON be available for the use of parents / families at designated times, further information can be provided by Studio S staff. We regret that drinking water cannot be provided for anyone from our water machine, but it is available to purchase from Studio S staff at a cost of 50p per individual bottle.
• Should there be a requirement for the administration of first aid, children will be expected to follow Teacher instruction and self-administer whenever possible, for more serious incidents, or should a child be upset, we will notify parents immediately.
Historically, many of our customers have enjoyed using our Cafe to wait in whilst children are in classes. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all of our classes are currently held outdoors, and our Cafe has had to remain closed.
We have promised our staff and customers that we will do absolutely everything possible to reduce the risk to them all. This means that no parents/ families are currently permitted to wait inside the building for any reason ,including to accompany a child to the toilet, in line with our Covid-19 Protocols.
We have now provided an outdoor area which is available for anyone waiting for a child to finish a class.
Please do not ask to wait inside our building for any reason.
It places us in a very difficult position as we genuinely value your custom, but our Covid protocols must be adhered to, for the safety of everyone. We have worked extremely hard and invested a huge amount of money in making Studio S and the wider Senate Group as safe as possible and to date, have had no cases of Covid-19 in our team.
Until our Cafe can open again, which we hope will not be too long now, we would value your cooperation in this please.
What we expect from our customers:
• Please do not attend if you, your child, if anyone in your household has signs and symptoms of Covid-19. Please notify us if anyone becomes ill within 14 days of attending a Studio S class.
