Occasionally, a child may be required to carry his/her medication or have this administered by a member of staff in school.  For all medication in school, the parent/carer MUST complete an Administration of Medication Form OR the Request for pupil to carry his/her Medication Form.

MEDICATION WILL NOT BE ADMINISTERED UNLESS APPROPRIATE FORMS BY PARENTS/CARERS  ARE COMPLETE AND APPROVED BY THE PRINCIPAL

Parents/Carers must ensure/ are responsible for the following:

• All medications are in date
• The school has an adequate supply of required medication
• Medications must be supplied in the original container and only dispensed as labelled
• Safe disposal of used or out of date medications
• Informing the school if medication is no longer required or changed

Please note, staff can not force children to take medication.  We can not accept medication in unlabelled containers.
