FREE Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) will be available through local schools for all students and staff from the start of Term 1, 2022 to help students and staff to return safely to school and ensure positive cases are identified as quickly as possible.

While mainstream primary and secondary staff and students have been strongly recommended to undertake twice-a-week testing on school days for the first four weeks of term, testing each school day for five days has been advised for all specialist school staff and students.
