Covid Update-07/03/2022

Dear Families,

I have been informed a small increase in the number of positive Covid cases in school. At the moment it is a small number, but we must be cautious about this and keep to the guidance. 

We have a number of cases in Year 2, (Hazel class) and one case in Year 6, Year 3, Year 1 and reception class. Until the holidays at the end of the month, the guidance states: 

'Children and young people with COVID-19 should not attend their education setting while they are infectious. They should take an LFD test from 5 days after their symptoms started (or the day their test was taken if they did not have symptoms) followed by another one the next day. If both these tests results are negative, they should return to their educational setting if they normally attend one, as long as they feel well enough to do so and do not have a temperature. They should follow the guidance for their educational setting.'

The diagram below from the same guidance is helpful and easy to follow:

Please keep testing and let the school know if your child is off with Covid symptoms or a positive test.

 

Many thanks

Best wishes
