Medical Support

All students with a medical need will be identified at the start of the year, a document will be sent out to parents/carers asking for home to declare if their child has a medical need that needs enhanced support or to be monitored in school.

Once this document is returned a care plan will be created in consultation with home and health care professionals involved.

School staff also receive regular training to support students with medical conditions and work with specialist colleagues when needed to ensure that student’s medical needs are supported effectively.

Any change to medical needs during the academic year need to be reported to the SENCo, Miss J. Noakes or the pupil’s Year Leader.
