• Confirmed case of Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease in Key Stage Two

  Fri 25 Mar 2022

  We have been informed of a positive case of Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease in Key Stage Two. 

   

  If your child is feeling unwell, please check for the following signs and symptoms:

  • a sore throat
  • a high temperature
  • loss of appetite 
  • mouth ulcers 
  • rashes
  • raised spots on hand and feet

   

  The latest guidance on absence from school for children with HF&M disease is for them to return to school once they feel well enough and not to wait until all blisters have healed.
