ATC may not be aware of them but there are reporting procedures. Rules are for drones to not fly above 400ft (to give 100ft seperation from the 500ft low flying rule).
An aerodrome has a protected zone around it 2-2.5 miles radius up to 2000ft. Drones would need permission in advance to enter this area (for TV filming etc). Aircraft will obviously descend through 500ft as they come in to land.
