Good morning,
I wanted to share with you information and advice from Derby City Council Public Health Team and the UK Health Security Agency regarding the national increase in cases of Scarlet Fever/Strep A. We are monitoring the situation very closely in school and we have reminded the Landau Community about good respiratory and hand hygiene. We have also implemented an enhanced cleaning regime with a focus on touch point cleaning.
You should contact your GP if your child has the symptoms of Scarlet Fever. The GP will assess your child and decide whether they need antibiotics. If your child is prescribed antibiotics, you should make sure they take the full course. If you think your child is seriously unwell, trust your judgement.
Please do read the two attached documents which provide helpful advice and guidance.
