Your child can attend school with minor ailments such as toothache, headache, stomach ache, cold and sore throats. Over the counter medicines can be given before school.
The school will contact you if your child becomes too ill to remain in school. If your child has diarrhoea or vomiting, they should not return to school until 48 hours after the last episode or symptom.
If you are unsure how long your child should be absent with an illness speak to a member of school staff or your doctor.
