In line with current government guidance we have been asked to test all pupils for COVID-19 upon their return to school in September, as we have done previously. These tests with be carried out in our testing centre and will be supervised by trained staff, the pupils will carry out their own LFT (Lateral Flow Test) under guidance. These tests are voluntary, and as such parental consent is required. The pupil must also consent, and can opt out on the day if necessary.

 

If your child is due to move up to GTS in September, or has recently joined / transferred to GTS, meaning we do not have the required consent; please read the information and complete / return the consent form, available here if you are happy for your child to be tested at GTS. Completed consent forms can either be scanned / emailed to C19Consent@gts.devon.sch.uk or posted to the school / handed in marked FAO Mr J.Buss
