Medical Matters
Ysgol Clywedog takes its medical care of pupils very seriously and that is why we have a permanently manned medical room, where pupils are given first aid. If a child needs to be sent to hospital, every effort is made to contact you, as a parent, and that is why you must keep the school informed of any changes to phone numbers, including mobile phones. If your child is too ill to remain in school, you will be contacted and asked to make arrangements to pick your child up. Parents must remember we can only administer first aid and cannot treat illness.
If your child has tablets or medicine, prescribed by the doctor, to take during the school day, it can be arranged as long as you inform school in writing (type of medicine, dosage, frequency etc) and the medicine is kept secure in the MI room.
Any pupil feeling unwell should report to the MI room, where the person on duty will decide if they should go home. You will be contacted should this prove the case.
