Dear parents,
Whilst it is not a government requirement we are inviting all parents to do a lateral flow test with their children before returning to school. We are aware of a high level of infection within our wider community and want to keep our pupils, staff, families and community safe and well. If you are able to complete a Lateral Flow Test with your child before they return to school on Thursday this may help to control the spread of the virus.
If you are unable to carry out a test this does not stop you sending your child to school and families are not obliged to carry out Lateral Flow Tests prior to your child returning to school. We encourage regular testing of all children if possible to keep everyone safe and well. The rules regarding self isolation periods have changed please ensure you are aware of the changes.
