Covid-19 Update
As you are all aware Covid-19 cases are increasing, and we all need to be vigilant especially with the lead up to Christmas.
The main symptoms to be aware of are:
- Temperature
- A new, continuous cough
- A loss or change to your sense of smell or taste
If you have any one of these symptoms you must isolate immediately and arrange to have a PCR test. Please DO NOT send your child into school if they do have any of the above or they have a positive Lateral Flow test.
If you take a Lateral Flow Test, and it shows as a positive, you must arrange to have a PCR test as confirmation and isolate until you have received the PCR result. The result of the test will need to be emailed to school as proof of the test outcome. The NHS will advise you of the date that your isolation period will end.
To find your local PCR test centre, please refer to WWW.GOV.UK
At this time, the Government guidelines do not state that the whole house needs to isolate, only the individual that has tested positive or is displaying any one of the above symptoms.
If you are unsure of your symptoms please call the NHS Covid telephone no 119.
Thank you for your cooperation.
