Diabetes in Schools is an information and training program designed for families, schools and school staff to help them support students with type 1 diabetes

A new national Diabetes in Schools program is set to ease the strain of type 1 diabetes on families and offer support and training to schools

Parents and families of 11,000 Australian children with type 1 diabetes are being urged to register their interest in the new program.

In 2019 mobile devices will be banned during school hours in NSW public primary schools, but children who rely on their phones to support their diabetes are exempt from the ban.

Parents and carers of kids and teens living with type 1 diabetes face more challenges than most as they begin the new school year. 

A new diabetes education and training program for schools will make it easier for teachers and staff to support children living with type 1 diabetes.

New suite of animations has been added to AS1 diabetes learning program to help children, families and schools manage type 1 diabetes.
