Eight more Lincolnshire schools with coronavirus cases on Tuesday

A further eight Lincolnshire schools have positive cases of coronavirus on Tuesday.

Lincolnshire County Council said on November 24 that it is working with 133 schools. Other schools reportedly have cases, but are not currently on the county council’s official list.

The latest additions to the county council’s list are Carlton Road Academy (Boston), Hawthorn Tree School (Boston), Huntingtower Academy (Grantham), Sutterton Fourfields Academy (Boston), Sutton on Sea Primary School, Tetney Primary School, The National Junior School (Grantham) and Harlaxton Primary School (Grantham).

Seven of those eight remain open, but Harlaxton Primary School has temporarily closed its site to all students for two weeks after confirming five cases of coronavirus.

The schools currently listed as closed are Great Steeping Primary School (Spilsby), King Edward VI Grammar (Louth), St Lawrence School (Horncastle), Holton Le Clay Pre-School, Newton on Trent Primary School (Lincoln), John Spendluffe Technology College (Alford), Greenfields Academy (Grantham), South View Community Primary School (Crowland), and Harlaxton Primary School (Grantham).

Meanwhile, Barnes Wallis Academy in Tattershall and Spalding Parish School have both been removed from the list as they are no longer active cases with Public Health England.

Andy Fox, consultant in public health, said: “As of this Tuesday, Lincolnshire’s Health Protection Team is currently working with 133 schools that have had confirmed cases of coronavirus.

“All schools are taking action to limit the potential spread of the virus, with some pupils and staff self-isolating as a precaution where necessary.

“The majority of schools remain fully open, and those affected are working really well to limit both the risk of the virus spreading and the impact on the pupils’ education.”
