When should I keep my child at home?26 March 2021 (by admin) |
The following guidance may be of help to you
The DfE have advised us that children must not come to school if they are unwell or have any Covid-like symptoms.
Covid-like symptoms that require you to keep your child at home:
- feeling unwell, cough, cold, sore throat, runny nose
- siblings may come to school if they are feeling well and have no symptoms
Actual Covid symptoms that require you to book a PCR test for your child (not a lateral flow):
- a temperature over 37.8
- a continuous cough that does not stop and has lasted more than an hour
- loss of taste or smell
If you are unsure please ask us. Thank you for your support in helping us to reduce risk of Covid infection.
