Dear Parents/Carers
COVID Cases on Transport Route 3 – Update
Further to my previous letter regarding COVID cases on Transport Route 3, we have had to extend the period of self-isolation for pupils until Thursday 7 October.
Pupils should have already had a PCR test, if not could you please arrange one as soon as possible. Pupils should also take a Lateral Flow Test on Thursday 7 October. If these tests come back negative, then pupils can return to school on Friday 8 October.
If your child develops any of the following symptoms at any point during their isolation, please arrange another PCR test:
- new continuous cough and/or
- high temperature and/or
- a loss of, or change in, normal sense of taste or smell (anosmia)
- headaches
- aches and pains
- feeling very tired for no good reason
- sore throat
- runny nose
- sneezing
- tummy ache/upset tummy in children.
If your child’s PCR test comes back positive, please ring the School on 0121 561 6884.
We would be grateful if you could send a copy of all test results to headteacher@westminster.sandwell.sch.uk.
If you have any queries or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the School.
Yours faithfully
O M Flowers
Head Teacher
