Prescription Medication
All Medicines must be handed in to the Admin Office as they are responsible for storing them.
We require the following form to be completed, which you can download below or copies are available at the Admin Office.
* Parental Agreement form - Administration of Medicines and Treatment Consent Form
Without the completion of this form, we are unable to administer medicines.
Please note that medicine will be returned for safe disposal when it has expired or at the end of each academic year.
Students with inhalers or EpiPen/autoinjector pens should keep their medication with them at all times. Please also provide a spare, which we can store in school in our locked medical cabinet.
Parents should be aware that the school is not responsible for any incidents involving medicine on the way to/from school.
Students Feeling Unwell in School
If you send your child into school knowing that they are under the weather, we feel you have made the decision that they are well enough for school, and we will stand by that decision unless their condition deteriorates.
Returning to school on crutches or with an injury
If your child has injured themselves and has been prescribed crutches, a cast or a boot from the hospital to help with broken or dislocated injuries, parents/carers will be required to provide all the information about the child's injury, and the school will complete a risk assessment. This is to ensure that your child will have special adjustments to their day to continue with learning at school and to ensure they are able to move safely around the school.
School Inhaler
If your child has asthma, we do have a school inhaler that is kept in the medical room for emergency use. If, for whatever reason, your child does not have access to their own inhaler and you would like your child to have use of the emergency inhaler, please complete this Consent Form.
