I need to make you aware that we have had 7 confirmed positive Covid 19 cases in Miss Fortune’s Snapdragon class. All are mild cases and they are all feeling ok. Please see the letter below for more information from the NHS.
No action is needed and this is for your information only. Please continue to follow government guidance. If you child is unwell or shows any of the symptoms (see NHS website) please test them with an LFD test. Please be advised that from 10th January 2022, it is no longer necessary to confirm a positive LFD test with a PCR test. A positive LFD test classes as a positive case of Covid 19 and the test needs logging with the government and the pack instructions explains this process. I fully understand that it isn’t pleasant to test young children and please don’t cause them distress. If your child is unwell and can’t test, please keep them off to avoid spreading to other people and risking class closures due to staff absence.
Positive case DFE Warn and Inform Letter
Take care and look after yourselves.
