WHAT TO DO IF YOUR CHILD HAS A TUMMY BUG

2nd Dec 2020

A number of parents have contacted the school this week to enquire about when children should return to school after having a tummy bug. Please see below advice from the NHS website.

How long does diarrhoea and vomiting last

In adults and children:

  • diarrhoea usually stops within 5 to 7 days
  • vomiting usually stops in 1 or 2 days

Diarrhoea and vomiting can spread easily

Important

Stay off school or work until you have not been sick or had diarrhoea for at least 2 days.
