Medical Conditions Awareness Training – Subsidised offer arrangements from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018
You should have all received a letter via email from Kate Sahota in February outlining the subsidised offer arrangements for medical conditions awareness training. Following feedback from some schools, we understand it would be beneficial to have an enhanced offer for those schools that would prefer to have on-site training.
We have worked with the School Health & Wellbeing Service to negotiate a reduced rate for school-based training based on a minimum number of courses being taken up and are pleased to be able to offer the following two courses:
- Asthma and the administration of pre-prepared adrenaline in response to anaphylaxis (one hour)
- Administration of emergency medication for epilepsy (one hour)
The courses will cost £60 each and should be arranged directly with the service. Schools can choose whether to take one or both of the courses and must raise a purchase order with Compass (the provider of the School Health & Wellbeing Service) specifying which course(s) they wish to receive. Schools will be responsible for the local organisation and administration of the courses (e.g. room booking, inviting staff, and recording attendance).
