We are continuing to monitor the meningococcal disease outbreak in Kent and are in touch with the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), the Department for Education (DfE), the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and meningitis organisations.
The situation is being managed through a nationally coordinated response. The risk to the wider public remains low, and schools should continue to operate as normal unless advised otherwise. No cancellations of activities, trips, or boarding arrangements (including Easter travel) are currently recommended.
We are updating members regularly via email and will be holding a free meningitis webinar on Wednesday March 25. Click here for booking information.
If you have any queries or concerns, please contact bsa@boarding.org.uk.
