Relationship with Parents

We aim to build good relationships with parents in the area of their children’s health. A child that is acutely unwell or infectious should be kept at home. We will telephone home if, in our professional opinion, and through our “Duty of Care”, we feel a child is unwell. We ask that all contact details are kept up to date in the office. We would expect parents to inform us if a child is unwell on the first day of absence. If this does not occur, the school office will make contact to ascertain the child’s whereabouts.

The school agrees to administer prescription drugs but only if the appropriate paperwork is completed from the office as set out in the policy below.
