Children regularly catch coughs and colds, especially once they start school. Generally, children can come to school if they just have a cough or a cold. General guidance from NHS about common childhood illnesses can be found below but it is important to remember that if your child has a sickness bug or diarrhoea then they must not come to school for 48 hours after the last incident.
