Close Contacts
Latest update- as you are aware cases of covid are on the rise in our area. A number of children are being tested currently because they have been close contacts. Please have plans in place in case a class is asked to isolate and seek a PCR test. If your child is asked to isolate then you should book a PCR test ASAP. Once your child has received a negative result they can return to school; hopefully within 24 hours. Please do not send your child to school if they are displaying symptoms. My advice would be to use lateral flow tests to check if you have any doubts. We want to keep school running as normal as possible and to avoid interruptions to our children’s education. Thank you for your understanding. As you know things are changing all of the time. We will keep you updated as much as possible.
