The School Nursing Team
The School Nursing Team supports the health and wellbeing of all our students while they are at school. Our work includes:
- responding to emergency situations
- carrying out health observations and checks
- administering regular and emergency medication
- supporting students with ongoing health needs
- providing advice, guidance and training to school staff.
We work closely with students, families and school staff to make sure students receive the right support throughout the school day. We also attend meetings for students with known health needs and help promote good health, wellbeing and good practice across the Academy.
The School Nursing Team attends Annual Health Reviews with Dr Ezekwe, Children’s Community Paediatrician, and Dietetic Reviews with Mei Man, Children’s Community Dietitian.
Working Together
We work with the whole school community, including students, families and class teams, to create a safe and supportive environment.
We aim to ensure that staff feel confident in providing the right care and support for each student. We believe that supporting students to live as independently and healthily as possible means also supporting the people around them.
