<p>School nurses are not based in or employed by schools and they will usually cover
a cluster of secondary schools and their feeder primary schools. The delivery of services
within schools is for local determination and commissioning for the service is led
by local authorities. Some schools will choose to commission additional school nursing
capacity to meet specific identified public health needs. Due to the variable nature
of a school nurse’s commitments no national data exists on the proportion of schools
that currently have a school nurse.</p>
