Schoolcare is a first level healthcare scheme designed to enable your school to provide benefits
to all members of your staff – both teaching and ancillary – at an affordable cost.
We all know that anyone working in education can encounter a great deal of stress, and when
working long hours, often in front of computers, poor vision is becoming increasingly common.
Schoolcare provides a genuine solution – it addresses both these issues directly with practical,
cost effective benefits that will save your school time and money. Not only is Schoolcare easy
to implement, it could start to add value immediately.
Schoolcare provides telephone access to Health at Hand, AXA PPP Healthcare’s confidential
health information and personal counselling service, with immediate access to a qualified and
experienced team of healthcare professionals, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year; a free eye test
for everyone (not just those working with VDUs); plus a discount on glasses prescribed as a
consequence of the eye test.
The administration of the scheme is simple – all that is required is the name and position of
the staff members you wish to include.
