FOUR more schools have reported positive coronavirus cases and asked children and staff to self-isolate.
Close contacts of those affected have been notified and will not return to school until after the Christmas break.
Named: The GP surgeries in Dorset offering coronavirus vaccinations
The schools affected are The Bishop of Winchester Academy and St James' Primary Academy in Bournemouth, Manorside Academy in Poole and Sturminster Newton High School.
The news comes as the public waits to hear if there are any changes to the tier two restrictions currently in place across BCP and Dorset.
