Should my child attend school?
Please find below useful information to help you to decide whether your child should attend for school if they are unwell. The full document can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/is-my-child-too-ill-for-school/ 
If your child is unable to attend for school please telephone 01952 386600 before 9.15am.
Medical Appointments
Where possible we would ask that appointments are made outside of the school day.
We do understand there may be occasions where this isn’t possible and you need to collect your child to attend. Please can we ask that you provide the school with evidence of such appointments. This could be a screenshot of a letter, text reminder etc. It can be emailed in advance to njs.admin@taw.org.uk for our records.
