Workforce Planning Tool for Testing in Schools

A message from the DfE

A revised workforce planning tool has been uploaded to the schools and colleges document sharing platform. Secondary schools and colleges are entitled to funding to support the establishment of test sites. They can use the updated planning tool to understand workforce requirements and to estimate the level of funding they will receive for this half term.

To ensure the most accurate costs incurred are captured we will be using the number of tests results recorded to calculate actual allocations. This will be measured by the number of test results you record on your individual school or college account on the NHS Test & Trace log results website.
