Teachers are kept informed of necessary medical
information sent in to the School Office. Where pupils
keep medication in school e.g. for asthma or an allergy,
this is be stored in a place as accessible as possible, while
maintaining a safe environment for all children. If such
medication is administered, a note must be sent home with
the child, stating the amount given and the time at which it
was administered.
Any medication must be accompanied by a completed
and signed pro forma from the parent. These are available
from any member of staff.
N.B. Staff are not allowed to give the first dose of any
medication for fear of an adverse reaction. |
