Medical Conditions

If your child has been diagnosed with Anaphylaxis and/or another medical condition which requires him or her to have medication available to them at school it is important that you fill in a medical form and return it to the school office as soon as possible.

As per Ministerial Order 706 we have strict rules to follow in order to keep your children safe at school. It is now a requirement of the school that the forms are signed and all medication is current prior to any school engagement. If your child also has a diagnosis of Asthma or Allergies, please also provide the items under these headings. You can obtain all these forms through your local GP and fill them in together.
