We are delighted to have been given this award for the work that staff do to support children in school with their Type 1 diabetes to ensure that they are kept well and to ensure that they are included in the life and work of the school. This is an award that we are very proud to have been given. Well done to all staff!

A parental view was: “The school has gone out of its way to educate themselves about this condition to ensure my children are fully supported and included in all aspects of their schooling—from the daily routines to after school activities. This has facilitated acceptance while raising awareness of Type 1 diabetes.”
