Illness related school attendance guidance

Warwickshire County Council and Coventry City Council Public Health departments have produced some clear guidance in response to the need for consistent infection control advice for families and staff who work in schools and other childcare settings
 
The poster provides a summary of the current Public Health England guidance on infection control in schools and other childcare settings.
 
We are aware of a few recent cases where families have been advised by the GP to keep children off school, which may be contrary to the Public Health England guidance. If you do experience this in your school, please can you alert  Kate Sahota (Commissioning Lead, Health Improvement) in the first instance in order for us to take the appropriate steps to minimise unnecessary absences:
