COVID-19 Updates

COVID-19 Information for Parents/Guardians:
What do I do if my child has COVID-19 symptoms and/or receives a positive test result?
Symptoms
The key symptoms of COVID-19 are as follows:
• A high temperature
• A new continuous cough
• A loss or change to their sense of smell or taste
Your child must not attend school if they have any of the above symptoms. Parents/guardians should book a test and also contact Mr Megaw (02830 878246 or nmegaw549@c2kni.net), who will be checking his emails at regular intervals outside of school hours.
If your child does not have symptoms of COVID-19 but has other cold-like symptoms, such as a runny nose, they do not need to be tested and they or members of their household do not need to self-isolate. Your child can attend school if fit to do so.
Positive Test Result
Parents/guardians should inform Mr Megaw immediately (02830 878246 or nmegaw549@c2kni.net) if a pupil receives a positive test result. This will enable us to obtain advice from PHA/EA and take necessary action such as a partial/full school closure.
When contacting Mr Megaw, it is important to forward the name of the child, the date of the test result and the date that the pupil was last in school.

Face Coverings
Following updated guidance from the Department of Education, all pupils are strongly recommended to wear a face covering in corridors and other communal areas of the school from 1st September. Reminder that pupils are also strongly recommended to wear a face covering while using school transport.
