Medication at the College
Please be aware any medication supplied to the College for your student must be accompanied by the below REQUEST FOR SCHOOL TO ADMINISTER MEDICATION. Any students with Anaphylaxis and/or Asthma need a new action plan/s (to be handed into the office). Students with Asthma MUST carry their puffer on them at all times. Students with Anaphylaxis must carry an EpiPen on them at all times and also supply an Epipen to the office. Students who have not supplied new action plans or medication may not be able to take part in activities such as sport.
STUDENTS REQUIRING MEDICATION (ASTHMA PUFFERS AND EPIPENS)
Students who have been diagnosed with Asthma or as Anaphylactic must have their own Epipen and/or Asthma puffer with them for Sport. Teachers have a Duty of Care to prevent any foreseeable injury to students while in the College's care. If a student has been diagnosed or has had an Asthma or Anaphylactic attack at any time in the past the risk of recurrence is foreseeable. Until the school is advised in writing that a student no longer has the medical condition, the student must have their own Asthma Puffer/Epipen to participate in sport.
