Carry On With Home Testing Plea After Scarborough School COVID Closures

Parents and Pupils are being reminded to continue taking home COVID tests as the infection rate in the Scarborough Borough continues to increase.

Anyone connected with a School or College in the Scarborough Borough needs to carry on taking home COVID tests and needs to self isolate for the full ten days if they get a positive test result.

That's the message from health leaders in North Yorkshire as two Scarborough Schools remain closed until Tuesday after a number of pupils tested positive.

Graham School and Scarborough Sixth Form are both closed until Tuesday after a number of pupils tested positive.

North Yorkshire's Director of Public Health, Louise Wallace, says everyone connected with schools needs to carry on testing and self isolating if they get a positive result.

Public Health Consultant Dr Victoria Turner says the tests are having a positive impact.
