Updated by FCPS

For students who are unwell during school hours, here is our procedure:

1. When a student is unwell, they must first report to their teacher or staff in the General Office immediately.

2. For minor cases, our staff will assess the student and provide appropriate first aid.

3. For students who need to be taken home, parents/guardians must:
- Come personally to the school to pick up their child
- Report to the security guard post at Gate A
- Collect a Visitor's Pass
- Report to the General Office
- Be prepared to show proof of identity if requested

4. For serious cases requiring medical attention:
- Parents will be contacted to bring the student to a doctor
- If parents cannot be reached, the school will bring the child to the nearest clinic/hospital
- For very serious cases (e.g., loss of consciousness), an ambulance will be called and a staff member will accompany the student to the hospital

This is why it's crucial that parents keep their contact information and their child's medical records updated with the school.
