Is your child too ill for school

As you will be aware from the news and social media, the government are clamping down on school attendance. This includes for illness as well as holidays in term time. While we appreciate children get ill and sometimes are too unwell to attend school we have added some information to help you decide if you really do need to keep your child off school.

Some of the symptoms do require a case by case judgement. For example if your child has been sick once after tea, they may be well enough for school the next day whereas if it is a sickness bug they will need to be off the following day.
