Managing Medicines in School• ‘There is no legal duty that requires
school or setting staff to administer medicines. A number of schools are developing roles for support staff that build the administration of medicines into their core job description. Some support staff may have such a role in their contract of employment. Schools should ensure that they have sufficient members of support staff who are appropriately trained to manage medicines as part of their duties.’
• Teachers’ conditions of employment do not include giving or supervising a pupil taking medicines. Schools should ensure that they have sufficient members of support staff who are employed and appropriately trained to manage medicines as part of their duties.
• Any member of staff who agrees to accept responsibility for administering prescribed medicines to a child should have appropriate training and guidance.

‘In some cases the Local Authority seek reimbursement from Health Authorities for children and young people that require
complex medical intervention. To apply for reimbursement the Local Authority requires schools to provide a detailed health care plan for the pupil outlining the frequency of interventions and length of time the interventions take. To apply for funding

Who will be involved?
Before Induction Day
What do you expect from
them?
How do parents/child feed back to you and
you to them?
Before School Start
What will the care plan look
like?
What process do you follow to change
things?
How will this translate into normal school day?
What about the out of the ordinary?
When will you formally review the
care plan?

“There is a difference between admitting and supporting a pupil in a planned manner via the usual transition from the previous school/nursery and a casual admission at some point in the year when support staff are already allocated - whichever scenario we would not recover additional funds to
appoint staff to this role.” Headteacher 2011

What do you expect?
• Unless you have a picture of what good care looks like it can be very hard to help
a school understand what you believe should be in place for your child
• For younger children, show them what a typical day is like for your child; make a
picture diary• Talk to older children about how care has
been and how they would like it to be • Be realistic
![Page 15: Taking Type 1 to School. Joe and Tom Taking Type 1 to School](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649ef55503460f94c08c40/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
You are the Teacher• Do not assume everyone understands
just because they nod.• Prepare your lesson before hand as a
teacher would.• If not comfortable ask DSN but make
sure you agree on the care before hand.
• Do not ask for help at the start, just explain and demonstrate.

Higher Education and Type 1
• Harder to control: hormonal changes of puberty and emotional roller-coaster of adolescence
• Higher rates of Diabetic emergencies and risk of death
• Yet the time when young people are often expected to ‘take ownership’ of their medical condition and parents discouraged from participating

The Normal School Day!• Talk to the school about how the Care Plan
will translate into every day routine• Use it to follow a pretend day on the
timetable – do you have problem areas?• Look at where people need to be – is it
physically possible? Can technology help?• In Secondary school might you make a
more ‘User Friendly’ copy?• Don’t set child or school up for failure - look
for issues that may arise before they happen - it is hard to come back from.
