Minister keen to avoid UK situation
School children will not be automatically sent home to self-isolate if someone in the classroom tests positive for Covid-19.
Government says it's changing its approach to dealing with positive cases saying it wants to avoid 'lockdown by default'.
Yesterday it was revealed four students, across two schools, had tested positive for the virus - the schools are believed to be St Ninian's High School and Cronk Y Berry Primary School.
Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson says he's keen to avoid what's happening elsewhere:
EasyJet to introduce direct flights between Isle of Man and Geneva
QEII headteacher asks parents to support policy on wearing tights
Heat causes Ramsey Swing Bridge to swell
Blind supermarket worker's discrimination case 'resolved and settled' for undisclosed sum
