When reporting a child's absence, please call and speak to the School Office on 0115 9819292 as early as possible (the Office is open from 8am).

If you are unable to get through, please leave a message clearly stating your child's name and class, and a brief description of their symptoms.  We may call you for more information if the reason for their absence is unclear.

'Do I keep my child off school?' is a really handy guide detailing common childhood illnesses and the length of time they should be absent from school.

For more detailed information, please see the Public Health Agency Guidance on infection control in schools and other childcare settings.
