A spokesperson said: "A member of our school community tested positive. This is currently an isolated case. We advised Public Health England and are following their guidelines and expert advice. We have identified a small number of students and staff who may have been in close contact with the person affected.
"In line with national guidance, they are self-isolating for 14 days.
