Medical Conditions and Emergencies

Dealing with medical emergencies in school, as well as managing children who have medical conditions has been outlined very briefly below. More detailed information can be found in the listed policies (below), however you may wish to contact the School Office for further assistance.
Managing Medicines
Medicines will be administered at school when it is essential to a pupil’s health or school attendance. We will only administer medicine when it has been prescribed by a doctor and consent by a parent has been given to do so. In emergency situations, the school office may administer non-prescription medication provided that consent has been obtained in advance.
The medications we hold in school are:
-
Calpol Infant 2+ month
-
Calpol SixPlus 6+ years
-
Nurofen for Children 3 months—12 years
-
Piriton 1+ years
-
Nivea Kids Sensitive 50+ Sun Cream.
