Immunosuppressed Teachers?

[missy111]

As an immunosuppressed teacher I am more than a little worried! I work in a very large comprehensive school with 6th form....

We've had to divulge any underlying health conditions to HR so they can do individualised risk assessments.

There guidance for school to look at everything case by case 2 at the school where my friend works been sent home one 8 months on from chemo and other auto immune problems.
Just speak up and they will deal public health england has guidance for them.

Thanks. The Headteacher is aware of my condition and treatments. I shall speak to him on Monday

Good Luck. My DH is worried about this too. It's an anxious time.

I spoke to my consultant today and they signed me off even though I asked not to. Risk is too high!

DH's consultant was almost flippant with him , interestingly...

I’ve got a reduced lung capacity as part of my condition which is the doctors reasoning - they also said any other profession they’d tell me to give it a week but schools are far too risky Veryyyyy nervous to HRs reaction to my note.

Had an email from my head, linking to generic advice for my condition, which I'm of course is not specific to education!
He is very frustrated at the lack of info available for him...

I have been signed off until Easter. My GP said not worth the risk..

Good fro her/him. Same for my pregnant friend . Boris was going to order it soon anyway.
