Supporting Pupils at School with Medical Conditions

The Department of Education has developed new guidance on how to support children with long term medical conditions in school. 
This is a big piece of work that has been supported by the Medical Conditions in Schools Alliance, a collection of some twenty charities that are all concerned with how children are looked after in school. 
Little Hearts Matter is part of the alliance and is delighted that new guidance has taken major steps forward to put children’s medical needs firmly within their education plan. 
We hope that it will help parents as they work to raise the needs of their children with teachers and local education authorities. To read the new guidance click here.
