Any pregnant teachers been advised?

I'm 37 weeks pregnant but still working. I find the latest advice a bit ambiguous.

Is teaching essential social contact?
If we are meant to avoid, does this start now or from the weekend?
Can I work from home?

Anyone had any advice from their HT?

Not pregnant but our HT asked us to ring 111 or your doctor/midwife to get them to tell you whether to isolate or not.
He left it up to us.

We have just messaged our pregnant teachers to say self isolate from tomorrow.

Me too - sent home today. Catching up on all the paperwork. Bored already... (but very grateful that I'm in a school where my welfare matters).

Are we not supposed to be isolating for 12 weeks?

I was planning to get a note from doc saying the same.
