Medicines
In line with the L.E.A. and teachers’ professional association guidelines, no medicines will be given to children with the following exceptions:
- Inhalers – these may be kept in the office or in a safe place in the classroom
- Prescribed medicines where the frequency of dosage makes this necessary
- Medication cited in a medical care plan
Any medicine should be brought to the office by an adult and must be clearly marked with the child’s name and dosage. We can take no responsibility for a missed dose. Parents may choose to come and administer medicines themselves. Children should not bring throat lozenges, creams or other non-prescribed medicines to school.
