Welford Primary School, seven miles away from Castle Vale, now has 50 reported cases of ’swine flu’. 44 of those cases have been reported today. The school closed early for half-term as a precaution following a high absence rate, and is being ‘deep cleaned’ during half-term.
Welford Primary School, in the Handsworth area of Birmingham, has 474 pupils.
The school has issued a joint statement along with the Health Protection Agency, which has guidelines and advice on its website: http://www.hpa.org.uk/

i think the health protection agency is a waste of time, basscially you need to make it clear with the parents and their chilldren and also vistiors that come to the school,that washing hands are very improtant in this case.
maybe you should provide vistors with anti bactrica gel to stop grems spreading also making sure the school is clean from top to bottom.
simply things like;;
making sure you wash hands after using toilet
if your child has got a cold keep him/her of.
seek doctor for a check up.
