Dear Parents / carers,
We have been made aware that one of our Midday Meal Supervisors at Drapers Mills Primary Academy has a confirmed positive case of coronavirus.
The children in year 5 who have school dinners and who would have been in close contact with the individual who tested positive have received a letter informing them that they must stay at home for 14 days. Children in year 6 may also have been in close contact but as they are already isolating because of an additional case within their year group, no further action needs to be taken.
We know that you may find this concerning but we are continuing to monitor the situation and are working closely with Public Health England. This letter is to inform you of the current situation and provide advice on how to support your child. Please be reassured that for most people, coronavirus (COVID-19) will be a mild illness.
Unless your class or bubble is closed, the rest of the school remains open and children in other year groups should continue to attend as normal if they remain well.
Full communication can be found HERE.
Yours sincerely
Mr J Manclark
Headteacher
