A child starting school is a daunting prospect for any parent. For those with a child who has syncope, this is an even more worrying process. This worry can continue throughout your child’s educational life if knowledge and understanding of the condition is lacking and if, as a result, your child is not receiving the maximum support that they require in their educational setting.
This project has been launched in order to take some of the responsibility off you, as the parent, to inform staff and carers about syncope and train them in condition management. The resources provided by STARS are intended to be no more than a guide and it is still necessary for you to inform the nursery/school/college/university of your child’s individual condition and ensure that any specific needs are accommodated. The materials provided here should expand upon and corroborate with the information that you provide.
