Visitors to our schools and college (COVID-19 guidelines)

Due to current COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines in place, we are currently operating an essential visitor only policy at all  NEAS schools and college

We are following advice from Public Health England so we are limiting access to our  sites.  If you are unsure as to whether your proposed visit is considered essential, please email or phone the schools/college main office to ask for advice. 

If your visit is essential, we still ask that you refrain from attending if:

• you have travelled from or transited through any of the countries or areas that have been on lockdown, or required a quarantine period, in the past 14 days;
• you have developed a fever (above 37.8C) or a new, continuous cough within the last seven days;
• anyone in your household is required to self-isolate in accordance with Government guidelines.

Along with all members of our school, any visitors must wash their hands with soap and water before leaving home and sanitise their hands once they arrive on site. Gel hand sanitiser will also be available on arrival and throughout your visit.

We would also like to advise that all our schools/college are currently operating a ‘no handshake’ policy.

We apologise for not being able to give you our usual warm welcome, but we must take the current situation very seriously and prioritise the welfare and wellbeing of our pupils and staff.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact.

Rapid Testing Update (mass asymptomatic testing)

We are working to keep our  School as safe as possible. You may have heard that testing for those without coronavirus (COVID-19) symptoms is beginning across the country using new, quicker COVID-19 tests known as ‘lateral flow tests’. 

In line with Government guidance, our plans for rapid testing for COVID-19 are in place. Along with other protective measures we are taking, rapid testing will play an essential role in minimising COVID-19 risks to all as well as providing peace of mind. Up to one third of people who have coronavirus experience no symptoms.
