With our return to school can we please remind you to be extra vigilant to the symptoms of COVID.
- New continuous cough
- Fever/high temperature
- Loss of or change in sense of taste or smell
If your child shows any of the above symptoms we would ask that you immediately contact the NHS and follow the Test and Protect guidance. Any siblings should also self isolate until the results of the tests are received.
Testing for pupils and parents can be booked through NHS Inform: https://www.nhsinform.scot/self-help-guides/self-help-guide-access-to-testing-for-coronavirus
Can we please remind you that any absence, for whatever reason, should be reported to the school by telephone before 9:30am. If your child is tested for COVID could we ask that, if you are happy to, you confidentially share the test results with the school as soon as possible in order to support our awareness.
Our guidance relating to all other illness/unwellness remains exactly the same as before. If your chid is unwell they should not come to school as this will allow them time to fully recover and also they will not then pass on any illness to other children in the class. If for medical reasons you have concerns about our child you should contact your own GP or the NHS.
