Billing Brook School

Medical Support

Billing Brook is committed to meeting and managing the medical needs of pupils to enable them to attend school fulltime.

We have two Healthcare Assistants who make sure medical needs are looked after. Billing Brook follows the guidance outlined by the DfE "Managing Medicines in School."

The Healthcare Assistant role includes:

· Supporting the development and review of Individual Health Care Plans for pupils that have medical conditions or illness’ that require medication in school.

· Liaison with external medical practitioners i.e. School Nurses

In addition to the Healthcare Assistants, we have several First Aiders in each department and a number of staff have completed the NHfT competency framework training to enable them to administer medications.
