Please see the latest Chief Executive update dated 07/07/21 regarding end of term arrangements and Academic Year 2021/22. In addition, please refer to the Trust Summer Newsletter on our Latest News page regarding contact tracing over the summer. As per the Step 4 of the government roadmap out of lockdown, which is expected to take place on 19th July 2021, close contacts will be identified via NHS Test and Trace and education settings will no longer be expected to undertake contact tracing. As with positive cases in any other setting, NHS Test and Trace will work with the positive case to identify close contacts. Contacts from a school setting will only be traced by NHS Test and Trace where the positive case specifically identifies the individual as being a close contact.
