I don't think you need a GP's letter any more. The law is changing to allow parents to declare their children fit. I don't know exactly when this change comes in, but flosmum posted yesterday, saying she'd just done one, so perhaps message her or search online. Here's the thread where she posted: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=20381&p=223966#p223966

There are drop-in clincs round and about where you don't need an appointment. I don't know if it would work for this though as they may require a letter from a GP who knows you and your medical history? I'm not sure how strict it is - never had such a last-minute casting before. Good luck!

Talk to the Receptionist nicely, we haven't needed appointments for ours. Best of luck getting this sorted out [-o<

Flo's most recent license only required a parental declaration - check with your LEA.

I have also replied to your PM

Good luck!
