On 1st October 2014 the Department of Health passed the Human Medicines (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2014 permitting primary and secondary schools to purchase salbutamol inhalers to treat asthma attacks among students who have been diagnosed asthmatic and already have an inhaler prescribed, but unable to use it.

Schools are not required to hold an inhaler - this is a discretionary power enabling schools to do this if they wish. Schools which choose to keep an emergency inhaler should establish a policy or protocol for the use of the emergency inhaler based on this guidance.
