Thank you for your request.
In the data set accompanying our article published on 22 February 2021, you can find data on the numbers testing positive for COVID-19 by occupation in England for the period between 1 September 2020 and 7 January 2021. This includes data for Teaching and other educational professionals. Please note this analysis provides estimates for this longer time period rather than weekly. We cannot provide weekly estimates due to insufficient sample sizes.
