Please be aware that Lateral Flow Tests can be used to regularly test and check yourself and your family whilst you are NOT displaying any COVID symptoms. If you or anyone in your family is displaying any symptoms, a full PCR test should be carried out at a test centre.

If anyone tests positive on a Lateral Flow Test or gets coronavirus symptoms, they should tell the school, self-isolate immediately, get a PCR test to confirm the result and follow the stay at home guidance for households with possible coronavirus infection.

Regards
