  Covid symptoms: Is it a cold, flu or coronavirus? This BBC video seems particularly useful

  https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus Government site with comprehensive Coronavirus information

  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-54145299# BBC link to a visual guide of the difference in symptoms

   

  These are the government's main symptoms for Coronavirus-

  • a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature) 
  • a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)
  • a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal

  Most people with coronavirus have at least 1 of these symptoms.

   

  The main symptoms of Covid-19 appear to be different to a common head cold which is often typified by runny nose, blocked nose, sneezing, headache etc.

• Is your child unwell? What to do

  Mon 14 Sep 2020

  We realise that we are in challenging times and that if your child (someone in your household) is unwell you are unsure whether they should be sent into school or not.

  We have had a look around and tried to find some resources to help you. In order to help you there is a very useful site provided by NHS 111 online where you can input the symptoms for your child and after answering some questions it will tell you your next step. If your child is ill we would encourage you to use this site as a first step before contacting the school.

  NHS 111 online - https://111.nhs.uk/covid-19/

  Here is a link to another NHS website with a list of a list of common childhood illnesses which you may also be useful now and in the future.

  If your child is off school or they (or any other family member) are having a Covid-19 test then please let us know and keep us updated.

  Thank you for your continued support.
