Lateral Flow Testing in School
The lateral flow testing schedule for the beginning of the new academic year is as follows:
Students will attend their first test at their appointment time and return home. If they have a negative test result, they will return to school the following day. Students can attend test 1 in non-uniform and enter school via main reception.
Student Home Testing
Student home testing will commence after the second in-school test.
