Covid-19 Procedures

What are the school procedures around Covid-19?
Our Covid-19 procedures are taken directly from the Welsh Government and are as follows:
If a child has mild cold-like symptoms, and no one in their household has any of the main COVID-19 symptoms or has tested positive for coronavirus, they should continue to go to school, if fit to do so.
The three main symptoms of COVID-19 to be aware of are:
- a new continuous cough
- fever or high temperature
- loss of, or change in, sense of smell or taste
If your child develops one of these symptoms they should follow the self-isolation guidance and you should apply for a coronavirus test.
What is the guidance around the under 5?
We no longer recommend that children under 5 years of age take COVID-19 tests without symptoms. Where children under 5 do have symptoms we would not routinely recommend tests unless directed to do so by a doctor or if parents believe a test is absolutely necessary and in the best interests of the child.
What should I do if someone tests positive in my household?
Should someone in your household test positive for Covid-19, please follow the guidance below.
