None for either of them..few more days but looks like they will both get a full half terms worth of education more than they got last term!

BlackInk · 20/10/2020 18:30

Dinosauratemydaffodils · 20/10/2020 18:37

None, back since August.

Thatwentbadly · 20/10/2020 18:37

1 DC of school age.
1 of 7 days prelock down for a temp. She would have been free again but then lockdown started.
1 of a couple of days in Sept while waiting for a test for a temp.

Lower sixth - none

They are having a two week circuit breaker (half term this week and home learning the week after) as we’re tier 3 and cases are rising. I suppose that’s much easier in sixth form though.

MushMonster · 20/10/2020 18:39

None so far. Secondary.

smallandimperfectlyformed · 20/10/2020 18:40

2nd one in 5 weeks here, SE London/Kent. Just waiting on results, both times my 5 year old sent home from school with a cough. Last time negative, hopefully will be again! Not so worried she has it this time as it seems the same cough as before. However I am worried that this is going to keep happening and it will particularly affect my year 6, 11 year old child's education as well as it just being rubbish stuck in a slightly overcrowded flat for possibly 2 weeks at a time!

ChristmasCantComeSoonEnough · 20/10/2020 18:41

None, one primary and one secondary.

Coasterfan · 20/10/2020 18:44

None. One primary, one secondary. I appreciate we have been lucky. A teacher at DS primary tested positive the last day of half term but he doesn’t have contact as it’s different year group. Two year groups at DD secondary closed at separate times but again not her year group so she wasn’t affected. I m sure it will happen though!!

Dillydallyingthrough · 20/10/2020 18:44

None, large secondary, London.

Bollss · 20/10/2020 18:45

One. As of Friday just gone.

Member of staff.

DoctorYang · 20/10/2020 18:47

None, went back to school in August.

Karwomannghia · 20/10/2020 18:47

One out of 3 once- secondary and it was a pupil

itsgettingweird · 20/10/2020 18:48

Lower 6th in college.

None so far!

They had a case and that bubble isolated right at the start of term.

Less confident about next term as our cases have risen from about 10 per week in my time to 60/70.

burglarbettybaby · 20/10/2020 18:49

4 days each

YellowishZebra · 20/10/2020 18:52

Primary school-none
Secondary- one but only found out yesterday, and inset friday so only losing 3 days really ( he wouldn't go out over half term anyway - he's very much a in bedroom on xbox kind of teen).
Can't complain.

FeatherySquawkington · 20/10/2020 18:52
