3. Background The Health and Social Care Act 2012 transferred the responsibility for Public Health to the Local Authority in April 2013 The Act gave Local Authorities the statutory responsibility for commissioning a national public health programme for children and young people age 5-19 This includes the School Nursing Service which form an integral part of prevention and early intervention provision by delivering the Healthy Child Programme and addressing key public health issues through a universal and targeted programme Specials Schools - children with either special educational needs or disabilities are commissioned via CCGs Immunisations and vaccinations commissioned by NHS England

4. The School Nursing Contract is one of the larger value (single service) contracts within Public Health The School Nursing Contract is delivered by Bradford District Care Foundation Trust (BDCFT) and is incorporated within the wider BDCFT Contract. The Services have not undergone an overall review for some time; opportunity for jointly reviewing the School Nursing, and Special School Nursing Services Budget pressures on all services – Council including Public Health and NHS and continuing need to demonstrate effective commissioning delivery of high quality services which are evidence based and performance monitored Value for money and meeting New Deal priorities and principles of Council and Commissioning priorities of CCGs. Focus on improving outcomes for children and young people and reducing inequalities Today focus is on the School Nursing Services for 5-19 year olds (not Immunisations or Special school nursing but interlinkages are key) Background
