What to do if your child develops symptoms of COVID 19

If your child develops symptoms of COVID-19 then you must book them in for a PCR test using the link.

If students test negative on a PCR test then should still remain at home for 10 days from the date of their first symptoms.

If family members have Covid 19 your child can still come to school unless they start to develop Covid 19 symptoms.

If your child has a positive PCR result NHS test and trace will contact you to find out potential close contacts. They will also advise you of a return to school date which needs to be forwarded to the school.
