Students who return a positive test must be reported through the Services NSW App and the school must be notified. Positive cases need to isolate for 7 days. It is recommended that students and staff that return to school after recovering from COVID-19 do not participate in rapid antigen testing for 12 weeks following release from self-isolation unless they develop new COVID-19 symptoms.
