Medicines Policy
As a school, we are able to administer medicine to any child who needs it as long as the parent/carer has completed a consent form. We store medicine in a fridge or locked cabinet in the office, except in the case of emergency medication such as adrenaline pens/inhalers which are kept with the child.
Please see the below form.
