What to do if your child is unwell
Children can get ill for lots of reasons. GPs, 111 and hospitals are giving the same, safe care as usual.
Please do not delay getting help if your child needs it.
Please call school on 023 8074 2345 as soon as possible to advise if our child is absent. You can leave a message if it is out of office hours. Do not report absences through email. If we do not hear from you, the office will give you a call on each day of absence as part of our safeguarding procedures.
