Requests for medical certificates for school children during term time
Ravenswood Medical Practice GPs do not provide short term sickness certification for periods of less than 7 days and are unable to issue medical certificates for longer periods of sickness absence unless the patient was seen by the GP at the time of the illness. GPs are not contractually required to undertake this and it is not part of their terms of service. In general GPs do not provide certificates for children as the parent’s explanation of the absence is generally sufficient for the purposes of the school.
