Integrated Health Offer
At Rosewood we offer an integrated approach, where children's health and education needs are met in a holistic way. Health services are commissioned into the school and we have a therapy and nursing team who work with us in order to ensure that all learners receive the healthcare and therapy support that they need. Our health colleagues work as consultants within the school, providing information, advice, training, and supervision for school staff. School staff are also able to contribute to healthcare provision through their detailed knowledge of each learner.
