Teach Health education courses delivered by highly experienced Registered Nurses.

TEACH specialises in providing essential health education courses and training for all staff in schools, colleges, and childcare settings. Our goal is to empower staff to teach and manage pupils effectively, regardless of their healthcare needs.

Our programmes cover the most commonly encountered and sensitive areas of child health that teaching staff, and the organisations they work for, will need to address in the workplace.

All our courses are delivered by highly experienced NMC Registered Nurses. To ensure the highest standards are met, our courses use evidence-based content and reflect best clinical practices established on up-to-date research. They also adhere to OFSTED, EYFS, NICE, and ESNA guidelines and requirements as necessary.

Our education programs simply and clearly explain important, universal health-related conditions and the effects a condition may have on a child’s education and care. We cover the vital aspect of how to administer emergency medication if necessary. Each course includes risk management, health and safety factors, and a full awareness of your legal responsibilities.

At TEACH, we aim to leave you confident that you are providing the best possible support for those you employ and, in turn, those in your care.

Testimonials

The Anaphylaxis, Asthma & Allergy accredited training was excellent – clear, concise, and delivered in a calm and informative manner. Our staff appreciated the detailed approach, and we would highly recommend this training to other schools as it was fantastic and thoroughly comprehensive.

Katy Wood - Deputy Head teacher/ SENco/DSL Lead, Weoley Castle Nursery School

As a result of the Anaphylaxis, Asthma & Allergy training, we are redeveloping all elements of our asthma awareness. The session was informative, direct, and delivered with passion, highlighting key areas for improvement. Training of this quality is essential for all schools and can only be beneficial.

Jeremy Gibbard - Assistant Headteacher, Christ Church Primary School

The Anaphylaxis, Asthma & Allergy whole school training positively impacted our staff’s confidence and approach to managing pupils with asthma and allergies. Staff now have a better understanding and are more mindful of triggers, which has improved their awareness and approach to pupil health and safety. The feedback from our team was overwhelmingly positive, many described it as the best training they’ve ever had! We would definitely recommend this training to other schools.
