The Elizabeth Woodville School, in Deanshanger, has told the two year groups they must work remotely from home for the remainder of this week.

Head teacher Sharan Matharu said in a statement: "There are a number of teachers self-isolating, largely as a result of having been notified to do so through track and trace. However, some staff are having to self-isolate due to family members having symptoms or their own children being sent home from their primary schools."
