Medical & First Aid

Care plans and medical conditions 

To ensure we safeguard the wellbeing of your child correctly and efficiently, it is the parents or carers responsibility to update care plans and medical conditions with the school, via the online form found below. We advise parents or carers to update this yearly or if there are changes to the care and medical needs of your child following a medical appointment.

Asthma

If your child suffers from Asthma, they are required to carry their in date inhaler on them at all times. We ask that their inhaler can be named so it can be quickly returned if it is lost. It is the students responsibility to ensure they take it with them to break, lunch and all lessons, including PE. As a school we do hold an emergency asthma kit. However, to enable us to use this please sign the consent form here.

 

Anaphylaxis

If your child is at risk of anaphylaxis and has been prescribed an Adrenaline Auto Injector device it is vital that they carry one on them at all times, including break, lunch and all lessons, including PE. The school does hold two spare Adrenaline Auto Injector devices which can be used in an emergency. To enable us to use this please sign the consent form here.

 

First Aid

Our school medical room is located on the ground floor of the main school building opposite the Engagement office. If your child becomes injured or unwell whilst they are in school, they are able to go to the Engagement office and be seen by a qualified first aider. Where appropriate we will make contact with parents or carers to inform you that your child has visited the medical room or ask you to collect your child from school. In extreme events where a student has suffered a significant injury, a first aider will contact the emergency services to organise their care before contacting you.
