School and Early Childhood Service Exclusion Direction

The School and Early Childhood Service Exclusion Direction was revoked on 4 March 2022 and is no longer in effect.

Schools and early childhood service operators now have established policies in place for COVID-19 management, including the exclusion of children suspected of having COVID -19.

Requirements for isolation and quarantine are supported by the Isolation of Diagnosed Cases of COVID-19 and Management of Close Contacts Direction, with vaccination requirements covered by the COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements for Workers in a high-risk setting Direction.
