Rapid response lateral flow testing kits, which can give results after as little as 30 minutes, will be used as part of the government’s latest move to limit further spread of the virus.
There will also be a staggered return to school for the new term at both Long Field Academy and John Ferneley College, with those in Year 11, children of designated key workers and vulnerable youngsters going back for the week beginning January 4.
The other students at both schools will stay at home and take part in remote learning classes for that week until they return the week starting January 11.
