The Department for Children, Young People, Education and Skills publish COVID-19 related school data on this page daily (Monday to Friday, term time only).
The total figure of COVID-19 cases in the Island, including the school cases, are published on COVID-19 Statistics.
Daily confirmed new cases are taken from testing data each morning. This data is analysed and reported to CYPES by the close of business each day. CYPES update the figures on this page the following working day.
There will be timing differences between the two datasets, where some cases could be included in the overall COVID-19 numbers on one day, and included in the cases communicated to schools the next day.
The data below shows the percentage of pupils who are known to have been present across States' primary and secondary schools for the morning sessions and exclude nursery classes. The percentages are from a total of 6,078 pupils that attend a Primary school and 5,055 pupils that attend a Secondary school.
There are a range of reasons why children are not present in school. At the moment this may be related to COVID-19, or other authorised or unauthorised absences.
The data is subject to change, for example where a child arrives at school late their attendance will be updated on arrival.
