Swine Flu Information

“The School is following the advice of the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families in the matter of swine flu, which is to carry on with school life as normal. We already have an established contingency plan to deal with such an outbreak which we will put in place following any recommendations from the Health Protection Agency should the virus spread.”

Update on 20th May 2009:

"We are continuing to keep a close eye on the situation.

We would ask all parents to remember that if you are travelling to Mexico or the USA at half-term and there are any flu-like symptoms in any members of your family during your trip you inform the Health Centre before sending your sons back to school. Should any symptoms develop after your return, please also inform the Health Centre, so that we can take steps to monitor boys in school.

This advice is equally applicable to those who come into contact whilst at home with others who have visited Mexico and the USA.

Thank you for your cooperation in this important matter."

Michael Weston
Deputy Head (Pastoral)
