Current Advice

  • There are no longe specific rules relating to COVID-19 in schools
  • Continue to follow good hygiene procedures 
  • Please make sure your child brings their own clean water bottle each day
  • Ventilation continues to be important to help reduce infection spread

Showing symptoms of a respiratory infection

  • Children who are unwell and have a high temperature should stay at home and avoid contact with other people.
  • Children are no longer advised to test for COVID-19 unless directed by a health professional. If they do test positive they should try stay home for 3 days.
  • Adults are no longer required to routinely test. Those with a positive COVID-19 test should try stay at home for 5 days, when they are most infectious.
  • Children can come back to school when they no longer have a high temperature and are well enough to attend.

What are we doing in school?

  • We are following government advice to maintain enhanced hygiene, appropriate cleaning and good ventilation.
  • Children and staff will wash hands and/or use hand sanitiser regularly throughout the day. Lidded bins and tissues are provided throughout school.
  • We are participating in a Department for Health and Social Care sponsored study to monitor air quality. This involves the installation of HEPA filtration systems in each classroom and the staffroom.
  • CO2 monitors are installed in each classroom.
  • We have robust contingency plans in place should we need to re-introduce any new measures in line with changes in government or public health advice.
