St Clement's High School was informed yesterday (11 November) that a Year 10 student has tested positive for covid-19.

Headteacher Nigel Willingham confirmed that following advice from Public Health England, 60 students and two members of staff were sent home this afternoon to isolate.

"I would like to thank our parents for the fantastic support we received today," he continued. "St Clement's remains open and all students should continue to attend as normal if they remain well."

Pupils have been reminded of the importance of washing their hands and using hand sanitizer.

Parents have also been reminded what the most common symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) are, what they can do if their child develops symptoms of Covid-19, and how they and their children can help to stop covid-19 spreading.
