Dear Parents and Carers,
Please see the latest advice over contact tracing; should pupils develop Covid symptoms within 2 days of being in school, I’d ask that you contact me via email ([email protected]) so that I can inform PHE, the LA and relevant parents. Many thanks indeed.
Where pupils, students or staff test positive for COVID-19 during half-term, having developed symptoms more than 2 days since being in school or college, no action is needed. Staff, young people, parents and carers should follow contact tracing instructions provided by NHS Test and Trace. However, where pupils, students or staff test positive having developed symptoms within 2 days of being in school or college, a member of staff is asked to assist in identifying close contacts and advising self-isolation, as the individual may have been infectious whilst in school or college.
