Government UpdateDear Parents/ Carers,
We are looking forward to welcoming all pupils back to school on Monday 8th March.
The Government have also announced that to support the wider opening of schools, lateral flow device (LFD) testing is now available for households, childcare and support bubbles of primary and secondary-age pupils and staff. LFD tests can be carried out at home and kits can be collected from local testing sites in Manchester. More information can be found online using the following link: //www.gov.uk/guidance/rapid-lateral-flow-testing-for-households-and-bubbles-of-school-pupils-and-staff
Most collection points are open from 1.30pm to 7pm and those using the service do not need to make an appointment, but they should not visit a collection point outside opening hours, as it may be used to test people with coronavirus symptoms outside these times. You can collect LFD testing kits from local testing sites in Manchester, at the following locations:
Armitage / Moseley Road - Lower Carpark, Fallowfield
Ancoats Central Retail Park, Ancoats & Beswick
Belle Vue Speedway, Longsight
