COVID - IMPORTANT INFORMATION

COVID - IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Please do not send your child to school if they are showing any of the main symptoms of COVID 19 (below):

a high temperature – this means they feel hot to touch on their chest or back (you do not need to measure their temperature)

a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if they usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)

a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means they notice that they cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal

If your child has any of these symptoms, get a PCR test (test that is sent to a lab) to check if they have coronavirus and keep them at home until you get their results, even if the symptoms are mild.

Please phone the school office straight away  to let us know the circumstances. When the results come back (positive or negative), you will be asked to show them to us so that we can authorise any COVID related absences.
