Coronavirus Update
Our updated COVID Protocol on how we will manage the school can be found here
On 12 May the Prime Minister announced that the country will move to Step 3 of the roadmap on Monday 17 May; this announcement included updated guidance for schools. The main change affecting schools is that face coverings will no longer be recommended for pupils in classrooms.
Our priority continues to be to provide as safe an environment as possible to minimise the risk for both staff and pupils. Hence whilst face coverings will no longer be needed in classrooms, we have taken the decision to maintain face coverings outside of the classroom in corridors and when moving around the school. Pupils should also continue to wear face coverings to and from school on public transport. The school COVID Protocol will shortly be updated to reflect these changes.
We are still encouraging pupils to consent to home testing, and every pupil is regularly replenished with Lateral Flow test kits to take home. Parents are to continue to report POSITIVE or VOID test results as soon as possible using the email address covidreport@kings-winchester.hants.sch.uk.
A short guide for parents and pupils on Lateral Flow Testing can be found here.
Pupils will receive their test kits when they arrive for their third in school lateral flow test.
You are reminded that the result of every test needs to be reported to NHS Test & Trace, following the instructions in the leaflet which accompanies each test kit. Test results should also be reported to the school. If the test result is POSITIVE or VOID then this should be reported to the school as soon as possible using the email address covidreport@kings-winchester.hants.sch.uk.
ALL test results should be reported to the school using the very short form at this link: Kings’ School – Home Test Result Report
