A number of pupils at Ysgol Gyfun Aberaeron have been asked to self-isolate for 14 days following the confirmation of a COVID-19 case at the school.
All confirmed contacts of the positive case must remain at home for 14 days to reduce the possible spread of the virus to family, friends and the wider community. The pupils will be taught remotely for this period. The parents of all these pupils have been contacted by the School.
The Council urges all parents to refer their children for a test if they develop any of the symptoms, which are:
- a high temperature
- a new continuous cough
- a loss or change to sense of smell or taste.
Parents should also be aware of other symptoms early on, such as headaches, tiredness and general aches and pains usually associated with the flu.
You can apply for a test onĀ https://gov.wales/apply-coronavirus-covid-19-testĀ or by phoning 119.
