Dear Parents and Carers, I am writing to update you on the changes to COVID-19 mitigation measures in schools from 18 April 2022. This follows new guidance from the Scottish Government published on 25 March 2022. These changes will bring schools into line with the position in wider society. They follow the changes to Test and Protect asymptomatic testing programme which we wrote to you about recently.   Full details are available in the letter issued on Friday 8 April 2022 from Nicola McDowell, Head of Education Service.
