School adjustments -Omicron covid variant update

Dear Parents/ Carers,

 

As you know, the Omicron variant is spreading at a pace across the country.

Public Health have made us aware that there have been confirmed cases of Omicron in Greater Manchester. 

As a result we like to emphasis the measures we need to make to keep everyone as safe as possible.

• All rooms will be well ventilated
• Wearing a face mask is very important - Please speak to your child about the importance of wearing a face mask in communal places and on school transport
• Cleaning hands on a regular basis using hand sanitising stations or washing hands. 
• If there is a case of COVID or Omicron in school, we will work with Public Health to identify close contacts, who will now have to lateral flow test for 7 days regardless of vaccination status and prove a negative result before being allowed into school.

Thank you for your support and stay safe

 

Mr P. Eckley
