In summary the key changes are:
- PHA will now contact parents directly if their child has tested positive for Covid-19 and work with the parent to identify very close contacts
- Schools are no longer required to identify close contacts (except in a limited number of circumstances) and whole classes will not routinely be asked to self-isolate and take PCR tests
- Parents are now requested to report a Covid-19 related absence in the same way as other absences are reported, by contacting the school office and leaving a message for the class teacher.
