Anyone else with a Covid case in their school?

Have just been messaged today to say there is a case in my dc's school and that Test and Protect are contact tracing and the school is remaining open. No idea what year group the person is in but they seem to think there is no spread in the school.

Its a scary thought but not altogether surprising when there are 900odd kids mingling together all day.

Anyone else had this in their dc's school?

We’ve now been self isolating for 12 days due to a positive test in one of our Dcs class. Apparently the school have not been notified so far of any positive tests in any of the kids and teachers in that bubble, or in their families, which is great news.

I’d like to think that all that mask wearing / hand washing / social distancing / ventilation/ no assemblies / small groups is making a difference.

I think it’s really encouraging that these cases in schools seen to be brought in from the outside and Are not spreading in the schools. And especially that they are not being transmitted from the pupils to the teachers, which is obviously a huge worry.

I know it’s just anecdotes here but it’s still good news.

I hope so Allison. There have been 2 cases in DC's school, apparently unconnected, and so far no further evidence of transmission. Really hoping this stays the case.

2 separate outbreaks at DDS school so far plus a teacher but none through school transmission and no evidence of spread in the school thankfully
