Returning to school from illness
Clarification regarding medical clearance for students and staff returning after being unwell
-
When a student or staff member is sent home after presenting unwell at school, they are required to present a medical clearance from a medical practitioner before returning to site
-
Please note, the requirement is for a medical clearance, NOT a COVID clearance
-
The medical professional is being asked to declare that to the best of their knowledge the student or staff member is fit to return to school or work.
This policy is designed to keep all members of the school community safe by minimising the chance of spreading infection at school.
