You may be aware that the Lateral Flow Device, LFD, testing programme has been expanded to include S1-3 pupils after the Easter break. This is a voluntary scheme to helps to identify those who have contracted Covid 19 but do not have any symptoms.
We have been informed today that on Tuesday, 23rd March, Jason Leitch, in partnership with Young Scot, will be hosting two live Q&A sessions for young people regarding the testing programme. The first event will take place at 13:30 for S1-S3 pupils and there will be a further session with S4-S6 pupils at 16:30. The live events will be held on e-Sgoil so that any pupil across Scotland can access. We hope to share links to these recorded sessions after the event.
