Medication

At UTC South Durham we follow guidance from the ‘Supporting pupils at school with medical conditions statutory guidance’ (December 2015) to ensure that our students are fully supported with any medical condition or need. 

Students at the UTC with medical conditions are properly supported so that they have full access to education, including school trips and physical education. We ensure that arrangements are in place at the UTC to support students with medical conditions. 

The appropriate UTC staff consult with health and social care professionals, students and parents to ensure that the needs of students with medical conditions are properly understood and effectively supported.

Please see the downloads below for two useful documents:

  • A letter to inform us of a student's medical need and any medication they need
  • An asthma card which helps us identify medical need 

Completed documents can be sent to office@utcsouthdurham.org. Please include the student's name.
