Request
Whilst statistics on Covid-19 cases in schools are now given as "Weekly reported cases since schools reopened on 11 January 2021", please can you split those between seeking healthcare, found though contact tracing, and workforce screening, so we can have a better understanding of how cases are arising.
Response
Between 11 January and 18 February 2021, 21 individuals in nurseries, schools and colleges tested positive:
| Reason for Test | Number | % Total |
| Contact Tracing | 16 | 76% |
| Workforce Screening or seeking healthcare | 5 | 24% |
Total | 21 | 100% |
