Pupils are self-isolating after a positive case of COVID-19 was confirmed at Marlbrook Primary School in Hereford.
A letter sent to parents stated:
Dear Parents and Carers,
We have been made aware that we have a confirmed positive case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in one of the Year 2 classes at Marlbrook School.
We have followed the national guidance and have identified that your child has been in close contact with the affected child. In line with the national guidance your child must now stay at home and self-isolate until 17th November 2020 (14 days after contact).
If your child is well at the end of the 14 days period of self-isolation, then they can return to usual activities.
Other members of your household can continue normal activities provided your child does not develop symptoms within the 14 day self-isolation period.
Please see the link to “Guidance for contacts of people with confirmed coronavirus (COVID-19) infection who do not live with the person”:
Mrs Priday and Miss Childs will also be isolating at home, but they will arrange for your child’s work to be available on Seesaw every day for the next 2 weeks and will telephone you each week to ensure your child is OK.
