This has affected just under 30 Year 8 students who have been identified as close contacts. To clarify - the whole Year 8 year group has NOT been asked to self-isolate, just those students identified through seating plans and teacher/student information as close contacts. If your child has been identified as a close contact, we will have called you directly to confirm this. Formal letters confirming arrangements will be sent out tomorrow.
