Reminder to Parents About Medication at School

If a student requires prescribed or non-prescribed medication (Panadol, Nurofen etc) at school, parents/carers must complete a written request. Students must not carry medications unless there is a written agreement between the school and the student’s parents/carers.

Students must not share medications at school. For further information please refer to Administering prescription medication (nsw.gov.au)

When a medical practitioner has prescribed medication that must be administered during the school day, parents/carers must:

  • notify the school
  • provide up to date information as required
  • supply the medication and any 'consumables' necessary for its administration in a timely way.

If your child requires medication at school, please complete and return the Request for Support at School of a Student’s Health Condition to the Front Office.
