Every year in England, the School Health Service offers Hearing and Vision screening to Reception year children. We also provide the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) for Reception and Year 6 children.

All checks are carried out by registered school nurses or trained health professionals using Thomson Screening Solutions. The programme will be delivered in line with national and local guidance.

Hearing and Vision (Reception Year Only)

This screening may take place at the child’s school or local health centre. 

Screening results can be accessed via the secure online Parent Portal.

This screening may help in detecting hearing or vision problems early, so that advice and support can be provided.

For assistance with the Parent Portal, please contact parentsupport@schoolscreener.com or call 0203 917 4055.

NELFT is committed to implementing the NCMP across schools. If you require support, help or advice we invite you to contact us on the below details.

If you have a child in Reception or Year 6, please click on the link below or scan the QR code to complete a short health questionnaire for lots of useful information and support. You will have the opportunity to complete an E-Support form, and one of our School Health Practitioners can get back to you.
