Just a heads up (no pun intended!) we got in trouble for sending home a child with headlice because under HPA...

Should a child with head lice be kept off school?

  • No! The DfEE/DoH guidelines for infection control in schools and nurseries state that there is no need for a child who has head lice to stay away from school.
  • One reason for this is that if a child does have lice, he or she will have had them at school for several weeks before diagnosis.
  • Letters notifying other parents of cases have not been found to curtail spread but often provoke itching and anxiety as a psychological response.
