All staff will have completed a new first aid course as of August 2024. This is a 4 hour course that looks at the provision of basic first aid and response to children and adults. This will be the 10th year we have trained staff in formal first aid training.
The instructor comes from the organisation Førstehjelperen
Illness
Illnesses are to be reported by email to : post@askeris.no . Parents can also choose to ring to confirm - but please make sure you speak with someone directly
Accidents and illness at school
Often only minor accidents will occur at school. The school staff and/ or the designated first aid officer will deal with them promptly and properly. All accidents must automatically be reported to the Class Teacher, who will subsequently report the incident to the parents. Special note will be taken in case of a head injury, even if no immediate external injury can be spotted.
Serious accidents within schools are usually very rare. If a child has to be taken to hospital, the parents will be contacted.
If a child feels unwell at school, the parents will be contacted to arrange collection.
Children who are well enough to attend school are considered well enough not to be kept in the school during Break Times.
Contagious diseases
Children who are unwell with infectious diseases should not be at school. Parents should immediately notify the school.
If your child contracts a vomiting sickness or has diarrhoea, please refrain from returning them to school until at least 48 hours have elapsed since they were last physically ill.
Head lice contamination is not a disease and may occur within the school year. If parents are aware that their children have head lice, they are asked to notify the school office so we can help stop it spreading.
