School age health review

During your child’s first year in mainstream school, a full health screening will be carried out. This is normally done by one of the school nursing team, and then will be forwarded to your child’s health visitor; who will then contact you if there are any concerns.


Examinations carried out

• Height

• Weight

• Hearing test

• Vision test

If there are any concerns regarding these tests, then your health visitor or school nurse will make revisions for them to be monitored. A referral may also be made, to the relevant medical profession to do further testing.
