Medical Conditions at School - Website

The Medical Conditions Awareness Sessions: A School Healthcare Professionals Resource has now gone LIVE and will be officially launched at the Education Show in Birmingham next week 28 Feb - 1 March.

This website will enable school policy makers (eg headteachers, governors etc) in England, to download the policy pack and it gives school healthcare professionals across the UK the opportunity to download PowerPoint slides which they may choose to use when providing awareness sessions on anaphylaxis, asthma, cystic fibrosis, diabetes and epilepsy to school staff.

We hope that by providing both these resources in a range of useful formats (word versions, PDFs, print copies and PowerPoint) we will be able to reach a greater number of schools and school healthcare professionals with these targeted resources. Please take a look at the website:
