Mary Henry, Principal of St Louise’s College, Belfast, said: “I can confirm that a member of our school community has tested positive for Covid-19.
"I have sought the most up-to-date advice from the Public Health Agency (PHA) and have taken appropriate action.
"Whilst the school has not reopened to pupils at this stage, I do appreciate the concerns of parents, students and the wider school community and wish to confirm that every precaution has been taken.
"Anyone who exhibits any symptoms associated with Covid-19 should not attend school.
"Ensuring the safe return of pupils and staff to school is my absolute priority and I will continue to monitor this situation carefully.”
