Medication
School staff are not legally or contractually required to give medicines to children, and we do discourage medicines in school. Whenever possible, please arrange for your child to receive their medicine outside school hours. We recognise that there may be times when medicine has to be administered in school. All medication, prescribed and non-prescribed, must be handed into the school office and the appropriate form completed.
We are an Asthma Friendly School
All pupils diagnosed with Asthma are required to provide the school with a copy of their Asthma Health Care Plan, signed by a health care professional, an inhaler and a spacer device. Inhalers must be in the original box labelled with instructions. These are kept (clearly labelled with the child's name) in the First Aid Cupboard and can be obtained immediately and at any time should an emergency arise.
