Current Advice

COVID Guidance 20th June 2022 onwards

The guidance has now nationally in England has changed with regard COVID.  Please see our recommendations, in line with current guidance, below:

• If a child or young person has a positive COVID-19 test result the government advises that they should try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people for 3 days after the day they took the test.  The day of the test is day 0.  After 3 days, if they feel well and do not have a high temperature, the risk of passing the infection on to others is much lower. This is because children and young people tend to be infectious to other people for less time than adults.  So, children can return to school after this period as long as they do not have a high temperature and are well enough to be in school.

• Children and young people who live with someone who has a positive COVID-19 test result should continue to attend school as normal.

  If you have any questions about this, please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
