Brooklands Primary School is committed to providing emergency first aid provision in order to deal with accidents and incidents affecting staff, pupils and visitors. The arrangements are based on the results of a suitable and sufficient risk assessment carried out by the school in regard to all staff, pupils and visitors. 

The school will take every reasonable precaution to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all staff, pupils and visitors and we aim to:

• Ensure that the school has adequate, safe and effective first aid provision for every pupil, member of staff and visitor to be well looked after in the event of any illness, accident or injury, no matter how major or minor.
• Ensure that staff and pupils are aware of the procedures in the event of any illness, accident or injury.
• Ensure that medicines are only administered at the school when express permission has been granted for this. 
• Ensure that all medicines are appropriately stored.
• Promote effective infection control.
