This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
It is important that if there is a diagnosis of Swine Flu within the School Community that the School Office are made aware at the earliest possible opportunity. Please remind your child about simple hygienic rules - handwashing/sneezing into tissues, etc. Antiseptic gel is provided at school. The clear advice from NHS is that there is no need for staff or pupils to stay away from school, even if they have visited Mexico, as long as they remain well. However, if they develop flu like symptoms then they should contact their GP by telephone or seek advice from NHS Direct. In the meantime, please DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD INTO SCHOOL IF THEY ARE ILL.
