COVID 19 advice & guidance

Overview

Please use this webpage to help guide you through the process for identifying symptoms of Covid-19 or for Welsh Government guidance in booking a Covid-19 test.

As a school, we can guide you to the relevant information but it is crucial that you seek guidance from the medical experts at NHS Wales/Welsh Government so that you receive the appropriate assistance.

Wherever you are given advice on booking a test or to self isolate, please keep us informed so that we can monitor the situation.

Note: We use Welsh Government and Public Health Wales guidance on this page. Please always seek advice from a medical professional should you be unsure of the next steps. Helplines can be found in the links below. This is not an exhaustive list of guidance, we have summarised a starting point for you as parents/guardians.

Maesgwyn staff have worked closely with the local authority to ensure that the school is safe for all stakeholders. At the bottom of this page you will find our risk assessment and some frequently asked questions. If you do have any further queries please don't hesitate to contact the school.
