Thousands of children in Essex will attend school for the first time this year on Monday. Schools are set to welcome back the majority of pupils as the first step out of lockdown gets underway. All primary students will be returning on Monday, while secondary schools will be undertaking a ‘staggered’ return to allow for mass testing of staff and children. Health and education bosses are urging all secondary students to get a Covid test before returning. Primary pupils do
NOT need to be tested. A number of special test sites are on offer to secondary students in Southend, while Essex County Council is urging them to use their nearest rapid testing centres before they get back to the classroom.
