• When I had a positive LFT two days before the end of term, we thought the responsible thing to do was keep the kids off school, regardless of official guidance. School thought otherwise and phoned us up, telling us to get them back to school or we’d be fined for unauthorised absence…

  • When daughter #2 was positive LFT but negative PCR we sent daughter #1 to school. Similarly when daughter #1 was positive LFT and PCR about 5 weeks later we sent daughter #2 to school. Neither infected either my wife or I, or at least not enough for a positive LFT or PCR at various points. Virus transmission is strange.

  • Oh, definitely. We just thought that, given it was the last two days of term when very little learning occurs, on balance it was probably better to keep them away. Mid-term it would’ve been different.
