But in a letter to parents, they've said no students or staff need to self-isolate as a result.

The pupil concerned last attended the school on Thursday 24th September and did not display any coronavirus symptoms while in school.

As a result, they've been advised by the council and public health experts that there's no risk to other students or staff and they don't need to self-isolate.

The school have reiterated their message that the school remains open to all year groups and all pupils should continue to attend if they feel well.
