School Integration Programme
Linking Health and Education for Better Support

Your GP surgery is excited to take part in a new child support programme in partnership with the local council and schools. This initiative will link health and school information in your child's records, enabling schools and healthcare teams to work together to provide tailored support for your child's wellbeing.

By sharing relevant information securely, this programme will help address challenges children may face in school and ensure they receive the care they need to thrive both academically and in their health.

What will this involve?

This project focuses on securely linking the school information stored by the council with records held by their healthcare team. This connection will:

• Support Vulnerable Children in Society
  By identifying and addressing needs early, this programme will help ensure no child is left behind.
• Improve Responses to School-Related Issues
  Enable quicker and more effective solutions to challenges such as attendance, learning difficulties, or emotional wellbeing.
• Enhance Healthcare Support in Schools
  Equip schools to provide better care for children with medical conditions, creating a safer and healthier environment for learning.
• Encourage Academic Success
  By addressing health and wellbeing challenges, this programme will support better focus, attendance, and overall performance at school.
• Benefit All Children
  Insights gained from this programme can inform policies and interventions that help not only current participants but all children in the future.

How is your child's data protected?

Your child's privacy is of utmost importance. All information will be handled securely and confidentially in line with data protection regulations. Only authorised professionals will have access to your child's data, and it will be used solely to improve their care and support.
