Covid Reporting
Reporting
During school hours please inform the office immediately if your child has a positive Covid-19 test result. Outside of school hours, please text us on 07740 107496.
We will need to know when your child started having symptoms or if asymptomatic, when a test was taken.
Covid-19
The infection rate of Covid-19 remains high and although this is something we will have to learn to live with we recommend your families' participation in home lateral flow testing to prevent the spread of infection further. The tests can be accessed as follows:
Order tests to do at home
You can get rapid flow test kits sent to your home.
If you do tests at home, you will need to report your results.
Order rapid lateral flow home test kits on GOV.UK
Pick up tests to do at home
You can pick test packs from a test collection point near you.
From 3 July 2021, some test sites stopped providing home test kits for collection. But you will still be able to pick up tests from pharmacies and collection points run by community organisations, like libraries.
If you do tests at home, you'll need to report your results.
Find where to get rapid lateral flow tests
Go to a test site
You can get tested at a rapid lateral flow test site.
If you go to a test site:
you may need an appointment, so check before you go
a trained helper might be able to help you do the test
you'll get a text or email with the result when it's ready
