Can someone confirm my understanding of the rules?

Pls forgive me but I feel rubbish from chemotherapy and cannot get my brain to work.

One child came home from school on Friday coughing and with a temperature (no symptoms that morning).

I managed to get a Covid test for me, him and my other son. Done yesterday.

If I do not hear back from them by tomorrow morning, should I keep BOTH sons at home (not send them to school) - including the one who is completely fine? I believe I have to do this but want to check with someone whose brain is operating normally.

Thanks

Yes you’re right.

Until you’ve got a negative test, the whole household stays home.

Hope your chemo goes well and the test results are back soon. Flowers

Yes, they stay home until they have a negative test. I hope it all goes well for you.

Yes, you all need to self-isolate until you get the test result. If it's negative then no further action needed. If it's positive, you all need to self-isolate for 14 days from when his symptoms started.

If you got them both tested you'll have to wait until you have two negative test results back in order to send them in.

Yes all isolate until result, if negative return to school. If positive all continue to isolate for 14 days.
