School Health Service (SHS) provides free age-appropriate health screening for students in schools, including Primary 1 and Primary 5 students.

School Health Service also administers immunisation against diseases to students, in accordance to the Singapore National Childhood Immunisation Schedule.

• Primary 1 students will be given immunisations against measles, mumps and rubella. Diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and poliomyelitis immunisations are given when required.
• Primary 5 students will be given immunisations against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and poliomyelitis. Measles, mumps and rubella immunisations are given when required.

When submitting immunisation consent at the beginning of the year, parents / guardians are required to provide your child's medical information as well.

Prior to the SHS school visit, you will be requested to update the medical information of your child. This will help us make the necessary precautions for students with medical conditions (e.g. bleeding condition, drug allergy) prior to immunisation.

The immunisation consent submitted is valid for one year from the date of submission.

Immunisations against diphtheria and measles are compulsory by law in Singapore.

School Dental Service (SDS) provides free dental services in school dental clinics and mobile dental clinics for Primary and Secondary students to promote good oral health for life.

Annually, Primary 1, Primary 2, Primary 4, Primary 6, Secondary 1, Secondary 3 and ITE Year 1 students who are enrolled in the school dental programme will be screened and treated by SDS. Students in other levels who require dental services may visit the school dental clinics or mobile dental clinics for free consultation and treatment.

Services are provided by dentists, dental therapists or advanced students in oral health therapy under close supervision.

Dental services provided, subject to the child's oral health status, include:

• Dental examination
• Basic dental treatment, such as scaling, polishing, filling and extraction
• Preventive treatment, such as fluoride application and fissure sealants to prevent tooth decay
• Group instruction and activities relating to good dental practices and healthy eating habits

When submitting dental consent at the beginning of the year, parents / guardians are required to provide your child's medical information as well. The medical information should be updated when there are changes to your child's medical condition. This will help us to take the necessary precautions for students with medical conditions (e.g. bleeding condition, drug allergy).
