Glasgow City Council has said an error led to pupils from St Cuthbert's primary being sent home and told to isolate.
Pupils in primary 5 at the Maryhill school were sent home yesterday amid fears a case of Covid-19 had been identified.
The council said that this was due to an error, that parents were contacted last night and that children returned to school today.
A school source claimed 'full classes' at the primary's feeder school St Roch's Secondary were also sent home yesterday due to confirmed cases of the virus.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is due to publish a schools update later today, however a spokeswoman for Glasgow City Council said: "There is no link between the two schools.
"There was an error with St Cuthbert’s.
"All parents were contacted last night and the children have returned to school today.
"A letter went out to all parents this morning."
