Most of these students have returned to class today, but those pupils who have been identified as coming into close contact with the infected person remain self-isolating at home.
The school provides an online form for parents whose children have tested positive. Parents can access the form here.
Headteacher Mrs Sharon Asquith has been approached for comment.
