The way forward for school nurse training.
This article explores developments in school nursing and the associated demand for a change in qualifying courses. The apparent reluctance of those involved in the education and preparation of school nurses to implement change is discussed, and the author presents the case for the recognition of school nurse community practice teachers (CPTs). An action plan that should bring pressure to bear on the English National Board and educational institutions is outlined as a way in which experienced school nurses can gain a CPT qualification.
