School Guidelines - Child feeling unwell or has tested positive?

PHA are responsible for the Contact and Trace service.

We ask all parents to please remain vigilant in regard to your child attending school. If in doubt please ring the school and ask advice.

Along with the common symptoms of covid 19 -continuous cough -high temperature  -loss of taste/smell, parents have also reported children experiencing -headaches -nausea/diahorrea -sore throats and/or loss of colour and generally feeling unwell.

If your child is unwell and you suspect they may be displaying covid symptoms they should stay at home (do not come to school).

Lateral flow tests are free and can be posted to your home if ordered from the NHS. These often can put your mind at ease. If symptoms persist please book your child a PCR test.

If your child tests positive, is identified as a close contact of a positive case or someone in the household tests positive please inform the school immediately by phone or out of school hours confidentially via email on stfrancisenquiries@gmail.com 

Thank you for your continued support with this matter.
