Helping Schools

Young Epilepsy is a leading provider of specialist health, care and education services. We offer support, information resources and training for school staff and students alike.

Young people with epilepsy often tell us that they feel different and feel they are excluded from activities; staff may be concerned about safety issues and other pupils may be fearful.

Witnessing an epileptic seizure or worrying that one may occur can have a profound effect on staff and classmates if they are unprepared. Young Epilepsy can help in a number of ways:

• Epilepsy Education 4 Schools Programme – our education and training officers can visit your school to train your staff team, give an assembly or run workshops with pupils (available for Keystages 1-5).
• Training - attend one of our study days.
• Resources for pupils - includes interactive quizzes, e-learning tools and more.
• Resources for staff - assembly, lesson plans and resources ready for you to use.
• Young Epilepsy Champions - sign up to make a difference to children and young people with epilepsy by promoting best practice.
