When a learner or member of staff has tested positive for COVID-19, this is what we will do:

• Identify all learners who are in the contact group.
• Identify all staff who have taught or provided support to the contact group.
• Identify all other staff or learners who have been in close contact with the individual who has tested positive.
• Seek advice from NHS test, trace and protect about the appropriate course of action we should take following the positive test.
• Decide on the most appropriate action to ensure the Health and Safety of all learners and staff and minimise the risk of any further infection.
• If required ask learners and/or staff to continue their course remotely from home whilst they self-isolate.
• Share with learners, parents and the public details of any courses/contact groups who have moved to remote learning at home.
• We will not share the names of learners or staff who have tested positive for Coronavirus because we need to respect the privacy of the individuals concerned.
• We will clean all areas used by an individual who tests positive for Coronavirus.

If you require further information please contact your personal tutor, programme area manager, or email Learner Services: generalenquiries@gllm.ac.uk.
