Please follow this guidance when your child is unwell. If you are at all unsure, please keep your child at home and contact the school office.
The key symptoms of coronavirus are:
* persistant cough
* change in taste and smell

If you, or your child has these, please stay at home and seek a coronavirus test.

In newer variants of the disease, these are other symptoms which may indicate coronavirus: headache, sickness and diarrohea, sore throat and fatigue. If your child has these symptoms, please keep them home and monitor for 24-48 hours to ensure that symptoms of coronavirus do not develop. It is possible to access lateral flow tests which you can administer at home and will put your mind at rest before allowing your child to mix with others. Anyone with children in school can get LFT kits for home use from collection sites in our locality. To find the nearest one, please follow the link below:
