There has been a bit of illness in class that has presented itself in Scarlet Fever in a child. This is a bacterial infection that is treated with anti-biotics and may have a rash and a sore throat. Whilst there is no NHS guidance for schools, the guidance states that anti-biotics will be prescribed and children can return when well and 24 hours after the first lots of medication.
This is a common illness in schools and often goes quickly once treated. We will be vigilant in school and ensure we communicate anything we spot in your child quickly. Please do keep an eye on your children at home and let us know if they become unwell.
