Individual Health Care Plans

Individual Health Care Plans for children with medical needs

If your child has a medical condition that requires specialist care and/or extra support in school, please speak to the School Administrator who, with the support of other health professionals will draw up an Individual Health Care Plan. This will help your child to remain fully included in events at school and where necessary, adaptations and additional support can be sought.

We aim to make your child's time at St. Bartholomew's as full filling as possible and it may be that the completion of a plan will help to do this.
