The Local Authority will write to each school to inform them of the programme and its intended benefits and confirm their participation in the pilot. • The Local Authority will share a list of participating schools with the Provider • The Provider will send information to schools and parents to ensure engagement and to gain buy-in to the fluoride varnish scheme. • The Provider will liaise with schools and parents to gain informed consent and a medical history for each child prior to commencement of the fluoride varnish programme.
