The use of medication in Queensland schools is strictly controlled.

For safety, medication should be given during school hours only when this is absolutely unavoidable.

Non-prescribed oral medication cannot be administered by school staff.

Parents or guardians seeking to have prescribed medication administered at school must make a written request to the Principal, including date, time and amount to be administered.

Any prescribed medication, which is to be given at school, must have the full instructions printed by the chemist on the label of the medication.

The instructions must indicate the specific times medication is to be given as well as the quantity to be given.
