Medicine 

If your child needs any medicine administered while they are at school please read below. 

We ask that all medicines that are brought in to school:

  • Are prescribed by a medical professional. We cannot administer anything bought over-the-counter.  Please do not bring them to school.  This applies to topical creams as well as oral medicines. 
  • Are in the original packaging with the Hospital, Doctor's or Pharmacist's label showing the child's name, date of prescription and dosage.  No information on this label can be handwritten.
  • Please send a familiar spoon or measuring cup with them for staff to administer the correct dosage.
  • Please do not put any medicines at all into children's bags to bring to school.  All medicines must be handed to member of staff on arrival and signed for in the school office where they can be stored safely. 
  • Medicines will only be handed over to the adult with permission to collect the child.
