Covid Update:
1. In school systems:
a). Staff wearing masks in communal areas and when entering the work/learning spaces of others.
b). One-way system for drop off and collection.
c). Maintaining distancing when moving around the premises to reduce transmission.
d). Only visitors who support curriculum and special needs provision, or to carryout essential premises work, will be allowed in the building.
e). No planned indoor events.
2. In line with the DfE/UKHSA: "a pupil with the key symptoms of COVID-19 should not attend the school, given the potential risk to others". Pupils with a confirmed case of Covid, "should not attend school while infectious and 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 test results are negative, they should return to their school if they normally attend one, as long as they feel well enough to do so and do not have a temperature."
3. If a child has Covid symptoms we will ask you to collect them and take them for a test. The LA request that a PCR is taken to support data gathering to understand the national and local situations.
4. Where there is a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19, we are able to refuse entry to school to protect other pupils and staff from possible infection with COVID-19.
