Supporting the education of children with long term health conditions, with Teapot Trust

This webinar will support professionals to understand how long-term health conditions can impact on children and young people’s education. We’ll also talk about how this relates to additional support for learning laws and guidance in Scotland.

We will explore:

-          children’s rights to support at school in Scotland,

-          how long term health conditions can impact on learning,

-          what professionals in and around schools can do to support children with long term health conditions.

This session is aimed at professionals working with children and young people in Scotland.
