HOW TO REPORT A TEST RESULT

> To report online click: www.gov.uk/report-covid19-result <

You also need to tell the school the test result. In line with the updated Suffolk COVID advice and the launch of our new information system we are moving our recording of COVID test results from the Google Form to Arbor. These can be recorded through either the Parent Portal or Arbor App and instructions on how to do so are here.

If  your child tests positive on a Lateral Flow Device it is important to still inform the school. Please call the school Reception (01473 836110) between 8.00am-4.00pm on weekdays and email admin@claydonhigh.com out of office hours.
