  • Summarise relevant issues around hygiene in the primary school setting
  • Review immunisation and effective interventions for immunisation in children of primary school age
  • Manage both teacher and parental awareness of, and responses to, infectious disease
  • Describe the management of cases/outbreaks of meningitis, diarrhoea and vomiting, conjunctivitis, impetigo and other diseases
