Diarrhoea and returning to school

10 replies

My dd had Diarrhoea twice last night and once this morning, kept off school today. No more Diarrhoea today and totally perky and upbeat in herself. Do I keep off tomorrow or am I over cautious.

Thank you

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

48h for D&V. Sorry.

What is your school's policy ? Many insist on 48 hours since last bout.

It's not called the 48 hour rule for nothing .

What time this morning? If 8am, could go to school on Friday, if 10am not until Monday.

Its very frowned upon to send the dc in with DandV.

so def keep off and go and have a nice day out somewhere thats what we do

48 hours

48 hours from last bout. It really does matter!

Is it fair on the other children, and the staff, to send your DD in if she might still be infectious? What if her teacher or TA is pregnant? You could be putting vulnerable people at risk.
