Not too long ago, same mum was dropping child number 2 off. I was actually here this time as was waiting to take Skye in...she was telling the other mums how child 2 had been up all night coughing and spluttering and was full of cold but was not staying off. Mums were staring daggers at her xD

Luckily, child 2 is not in my daughters class, or even anywhere near her.

Skye still ended up ill a few days later, most likely after little brother caught the cold. But thats different...you cannot keep one off on the basis they MIGHT be contagious or might catch a bug. But if they are already ill then they should be off...

So yeah, it may be hearsay but she has previous for it so I am obviously going to assume the teacher is right again

Rather wish I was fit enough right now to take Skye back to school myself once she is better, could be useful speaking to neglectful mum.

Okay well fair enough but that is why teachers don't normally discuss other students as it could lead to rows on the playground It is annoying But as they go up through school sometimes you have to send them in a bit snotty if they are off for a few days and in an exam year, also some parents feel it's good good for the immune system to be exposed to colds you meet all sorts Vicky, you will have no hair left by the time they get to sixth form
