Do I have to take my other kids out of school too (different schools)?

They're all only back after a few days off waiting on covid test results (negative).after my other DS developed a cough.

Have the school not given you clear instructions?

Guidelines say only the child from the impacted bubble should stay at hoke for 15 days.

15 day? Where did I get that from Shock

14 days........

They just rang. I'm going to get him now. Maybe they'll send some written info home.

An entire year group at our local high school (ds just left year 11 and still has friends there) were sent home due to a positive test in one child. Siblings of that year group do not have to isolate even if they attend the same school.

No, siblings can still go to school unless your child develops symptoms or has a positive test.
The family of the child that has tested positive will have to isolate.

It depends where you live. In some places the whole household has to SE for 14 days.

You should have an email / letter from the school with instructions.

Nothing from the school yet.
