Welcome to the 11-19 section of the Bexley 0 to 19 Children and Young People’s health service website; providing information for parents, carers of children and young people aged 11 to 19 about our service.
We understand that growing up isn’t always an easy process, and from time to time your child might need some help, support and guidance. That’s where Bexley 0 to 19 School Nurses can help! We provide secondary school-aged children and young people with support and advice.
You can contact your School Nurse directly through our ‘ask a question’ contact form or call 0300 330 5777.
School Nurses are qualified Nurses or Midwives who have completed further training. Every school has a named School Nurse who provides advice to children about healthy living and supports them in their choices. They are approachable and non-judgemental and their aim is to enable children and young people to improve their health and wellbeing and reach their full potential.
What if I want advice outside of school?
You can use the Ask our nurse a question contact form or phone on 0300 330 5777. Calls are recorded for training and quality purposes, to find out more visit Privacy | Bexley 0 to 19 Public Health Service.
Safeguarding is protecting those who are vulnerable from abuse or neglect. It means making sure children and young people are supported to get good access to health care and stay well. All children and young people need to have trusted adults around them to make sure they are kept safe from harm by other people, or from hurting themselves. It is also about taking action to enable all children and young people to have the best possible outcomes.
