Latest News and Updates

From 1 April 22, updated government guidance advises people with symptoms of a respiratory infection, including COVID-19, and a high temperature or who feel unwell, to try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people until they feel well enough to resume normal activities and they no longer have a high temperature.

Anyone with a positive COVID-19 test result will be advised to try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people when they are most infectious:

• Adults: 5 days
• Children: 3 days

We would ask all families to exercise great caution when considering if their child is well enough to attend school. This will allow us to maintain optimum staffing levels and ensure as many children as possible stay well and can continue to come to school.

The latest NHS advice for children can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/symptoms/coronavirus-in-children/ Please note that the NHS has significantly expanded the list of symptoms linked to covid-19.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

                       

Thank you to all the parent helpers who came in during Science Week 2022!

We are aware that some local schools are still experiencing high levels of Covid-19 amongst staff and pupils – Covid-19 is still posing a health risk and causing considerable disruption to children’s education. To help reduce the spread of the virus, please: 

• Continue to be very attentive to any potential symptoms of Covd-19.
• Do not send your child to school if they have symptoms of Covid-19 or they have a positive LFT.
• Book a PCR test if your child has symptoms of Covid-19.

All families should all continue to follow guidance on People with COVID-19 and their contacts if anyone in the household has COVID-19 symptoms.

Children absent with Covid must not return until they have had 2 negative LFTs taken 24 hours apart from Day 5 onwards. If LFTs remain positive, then they should continue to isolate for the full 10 days.

You can still call 119 for Covid-19 advice or visit the NHS website.

Please call school if you have any questions.

Many thanks for your ongoing support.

How to safely return to your normal routine before 10 days

Many people will no longer be infectious to others after 5 days. You may choose to take an LFD test from 5 days after your symptoms started (or the day your test was taken if you did not have symptoms) followed by another LFD test the next day. If both these test results are negative, and you do not have a high temperature, the risk that you are still infectious is much lower and you can safely return to your normal routine

  So much dressing up fun!
