Medicines and Medical Needs

Please supply any relevant medical information about your child on the admissions data form and write to inform your child’s tutor of any subsequent changes.  There are several members of staff with first aid qualifications in school at all times. The school has a medical room  where minor injuries and ailments are treated.
 Our school nurse visits regularly to conduct medical examinations and vaccinations as required.  Parents are always given advanced notice of these visits. 
Where possible, prescribed medicines should be administered by parents outside of the school day.  If this is not possible, parents are required to complete an Authorisation for Administration Form in order for medication to be administered in school.  Parents are asked to deliver medicines to school in the original container (s) ensuring that the medicine is not out of date and that it has been stored correctly.  All medicines must be marked with the following information clearly indicated:
· the child’s name on the medicine
· when the medicine should be given;
· the prescribed dose and pharmacist’s instruction, e.g., after meals
Parents must notify the school immediately (in writing) of any changes or alteration to a prescription requiring adjustment to be made to any previous arrangement about medicines for their child / young person. 
Please be advised that we are unable to administer any over-the-counter medication.
