We have been asked to share the following information by NHS Fife:

Group A strep is a common bacteria which causes mild infections. These infections are usually easily treated, but on rare occasions they can become more serious.

At this time of year there are lots of viruses circulating that cause children to be unwell, and it is more likely a child is ill from one of these than group A strep. In this video, consultant paediatrician at the Victoria Hospital, Dr John Morrice, talks about what to look out for if your child is unwell, and when you may need to seek medical assistance.
