## Description

The service will work with schools to help them understand their responsibilities for and best practice in supporting children with medical needs\. This should ensure that the support offered from the home school is as effective as possible, reducing the need to refer to HERS\. Should a referral to the service be necessary, the school and service will work in close partnership in the best interests of the student and to facilitate successful reintegrated as soon as possible\. The HERS is not viewed as a preferrable long term alternative to mainstream education provision\.
