    I wouldn't close for a partner being ill - they can shut themselves upstairs out of the way & look after themselves for the day!

    Yeah that's what I've done just thought I'd better make parents aware so they had the choice. They all came in anyway so obviously weren't worried

    Sometimes my own children are off with colds etc just not well enough for school and I just tell the parents they are upstairs and they may pop down for a drink etc. They are usually fine as its usually their child that gave it mine!
