We have been advised by the Department for Education that from 11th January, the need to take a PCR test after a positive LFT has been temporarily suspended. If you or your children test positive on a Lateral Flow Test, you no longer need to book a PCR test to confirm this. You should follow the guidance on self-isolation for 7 days. A negative LFT on day 6 and again on day 7 (24 hours apart) and no temperature, will mean it is okay to come back to school. 

Close contacts of positive cases should carry out daily LFTs or self-isolate for 10 days.
