COVID-19 Testing and Travelling Home Guidelines

Belgravia Guardians already has established Covid-19 Testing Service in place with the ability to privately test our students, staff and host families.

Our testing service is provided by an accredited medical laboratory which is approved by the UK and HK government. The test is self-administered so the student could take the test without leaving the school. Belgravia Guardians will coordinate with the school/host family to facilitate the COVID-19 testing of the student.

The test involves taking two swabs from the nose and the throat. The sample has to be taken within 72 hours before the scheduled departure time of the specified aircraft. With results available within 24 hours of sample receipt, we are able to provide a name certificate with results within tight timescales for our students who want to return home for their holiday.

At present, a home testing kit (taken by the individual and delivered via post) is approved but this might change in the future. A pre-paid Royal Mail Safebox is provided for you to send the kit back to the lab.

Our test is a PCR nucleic acid test and the laboratory we used is approved by the HK Government (the laboratory we used is ISO15189 accredited). The accreditation document will be sent to you to show it to the airport staff. 

​

We recommend you order the Covid19 Test at least one week in advance of your flight departure time.
