Specialist Professionals

School Nursing service

Here at Wood Bank we have an NHS full time Nurse and Healthcare Assistant on site. They play an essential role in helping us to provide a holistic education and ensure that all children are able to access learning.

The team support pupils and school staff to ensure that children with complex health needs are able to access school. The nurses support staff in implementing children’s health care plans, provide training and support individual families.

Parents are invited to contact the school office to speak confidentially with one of the nursing team between 8.30-3.30 daily.

We strongly believe in a multi-agency approach to effectively deliver our curriculum. Other professionals who work with us in school are:

• Speech and Language therapists (SALT)
• Orthotics
• Physiotherapists
• Occupational Therapists
• Immunisation Team
• Augmentative and associated communication specialists (AAC)
