Dear Parents
COVID-19
As you are now fully aware, every time there is a confirmed case of COVID 19 in the school I am duty bound to inform you. Please be assured that the school also links with the Department for Education and Public Health UK and provides these bodies with detailed information about each case.
On this occasion there has been more than one case confirmed during the weekend, this has resulted in some additional checks completed with clinical team from Public Health England.
Contact has already been made during the weekend with specific students and staff members who now need to enter a period of isolation. Please do take time to read the previous letter of advice that Public Health UK have asked me to send out.
I will again take this opportunity to stress a key point made within the letter:
- If anyone in your household is ill with COVID related symptoms. EVERYONE in that house must isolate and remain in the house whilst a test is being taken by the family member who is unwell.
Doing so will greatly reduce the overall amount of infection the household could pass on to others in our school and wider community.
Thank you for your ongoing support in this matter.
Yours faithfully
Phil Grundy
Principal
