The school at the centre of a new NSW COVID-19 cluster has reportedly failed to maintain COVID-19 safe practices.

A parent of students at Tangara School for Girls has contacted Ben Fordham claiming the school has ignored health advice.

The parent said weekly choirs are still being held, compulsory mass is being attended by students and last Wednesday there was a primary school food stall run by the high schoolers.

There are currently 17 cases linked to the school.

NSW Health and NSW Police have been contacted for comment.
