Change to isolation requirements in schools

On 30 September, National Cabinet announced that from Friday 14 October 2022 people who test positive to COVID-19 do not need to self-isolate. 

 

Students and staff should continue to stay home when sick.

 

Students, staff and visitors should only attend school when symptom free. We strongly encourage all students, staff and visitors to follow the guidance issued by NSW Health. Schools must continue to send home students or staff displaying symptoms.

 

For anyone who believes they have been exposed to COVID-19, it is strongly recommended that they monitor for symptoms and test if they have any concerns, as well as wear a mask.

Please be aware that staff and students cannot attend school if they are showing any symptoms of COVID-19. These include fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, loss of smell/taste, fatigue, muscle/joint pains, diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting, extreme tiredness, unexplained chest pain or conjunctivitis (eye infection).
