Dogs in Schools
Our Preparing for Dog in School online course is designed for school staff who have or plan to have a dog on site, either as staff dog or a visiting therapy dog. The course provides all the knowledge needed to ensure safe and successful integration of the therapy dog for staff, students and the dog.
From risk assessments to classroom posters, considering waste disposal to understanding dog behaviour, our comprehensive course will ensure your school is able to maximise the benefits of having a dog in the classroom.
