Useful forms
To ensure the safety and well-being of all students, the school has specific procedures regarding the administration of medication during school hours. As a general principle, we aim to avoid administering medication at school whenever possible.
The three forms below apply to both short-term medication (e.g. antibiotics) and long-term medication. If medication must be administered at school, the relevant form must be completed, printed, signed, and handed in to the school office before the medication can be given. Please note that emergency medication requires an additional procedure and must also be signed by the treating physician.
