Pregnant and Covid - will it trigger early mat leave

[TFMinx]

Hi all, I'm 35 weeks pregnant and tested positive for Covid whilst at school yesterday. I've been told I'm not allowed back until Monday at the earliest and then only if I don't have a temperature and feeling well.

My question is this: if I end up still being ill next week, will my maternity be triggered early? I've tried looking online, but can't seem to find a definitive answer. I'm feeling pretty rough at the moment.

Thank you

Isn’t it only pregnancy related sickness that can trigger early maternity leave? So since it’s Covid I would presume not.

Thank you @ProfessorGambol that's what I thought, but there are some confusing messages online
