All schools should have a medical conditions policy that states:
- how the school will care for any children with medical conditions
- the procedures for getting the right care and training in place
- and who is responsible for making sure the policy is carried out
Help and resources for schools
If you work at a school and need advice, information and support around medical needs for your pupils, please see the school nursing service page.
