One child with symptoms, siblings stay home?
Settle a disagreement please!

All take pcr, siblings go to school unless or until positive test result.

And that's the actual current guidelines or just common sense?

www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-stay-at-home-guidance/stay-at-home-guidance-for-households-with-possible-coronavirus-covid-19-infection

Anyone with COVID-19 symptoms or a positive test result should stay at home and self-isolate immediately. If you have symptoms of COVID-19, you should arrange to have a PCR test as soon as possible. This still applies even if you have received one or more doses of COVID-19 vaccine.
If you live in the same household as someone with COVID-19, you should stay at home and self-isolate. If you are fully vaccinated or aged under 18 years and 6 months you are not required to self-isolate if you are a contact of someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.

You can find the official guidelines easily using google. They’re clearly written and easy to understand.

The precise answer to this depends on where in the uk you are.

Yes I'm aware of google thank you lol

I don’t get it then. Can’t you find the guidelines you need?

It's ok you don't have to 'get it' it was just a question. But thank you for replying

Where in the uk are you so I can google the right answer for you?

Depends how you want to deal with it. In my opinion:

Official guidance - they don’t need to isolate.
Common Sense - keep them at home to stop the risk of spreading.

I currently have COVID. DS is at college (16), testing negative on LFT's and no symptoms so he's going in every day.
