Coronavirus

The government has stated that schools should have in place an outbreak management plan. At Christ the King we also have a school COVID risk assessment in place. 

The government states that an ‘outbreak’ is when there are ‘several’ cases within the school; in August 2021 they defined this as:

“Whichever of these thresholds is reached first:

• 5 children, pupils, students or staff, who are likely to have mixed closely, test positive for COVID-19 within a 10-day period; or
• 10% of children, pupils, students or staff who are likely to have mixed closely test positive for COVID-19 within a 10-day period”
