[Senco-forum] ADHD medication problem

[Anne Dibb]

could meds be given to him by the secretary/ meds person nearer the classroom. We have arranged for meds to be given in the kitchen area as it avoids a trek through the school, as like you we cannot give meds in the classroom

Or change the time so it coincides with. A lunch break?
