Coronavirus: Schools to be advised not to close over suspected cases

Coronavirus: Schools to be advised not to close over suspected cases Schools do not need to close or send staff and pupils home if there is a suspected case of coronavirus, new guidance is to recommend.

Public Health England will say no restrictions or special control measures are needed while tests are carried out on a suspected case.

If a case is confirmed, health protection teams will speak to the head teacher and action will be taken.

PHE is expected to issue the new guidance later. BBC News
