This is an entirely voluntary measure and staff should continue to attend the workplace unless they develop symptoms or receive a detected result on the antigen test.Ī letter to principals with detailed guidance has been issued by the department and is available to download ( English version and Irish version). Where there is an additional case in a second pod in the room within seven days, the class teacher and other staff members working in the classroom/special education room may request the antigen tests through a freephone number.

The INTO and Fórsa negotiated the following additional precautionary measure for school staff: where there is a confirmed case in a pod, an SNA or teacher working closely with children in the pod may also avail of the antigen tests and request them in the same way as parents/guardians are instructed to do so for children. The union welcomes this initiative which will begin on Monday, 29 November. The Department of Education has announced detailed guidance on the primary school antigen-testing programme, which the INTO has been advocating for throughout the year.
