Guidance on Planning for a Human Flu Pandemic
The Government recommends that organisations, including those in the public sector at local level, such as local authorities, should be as prepared as possible now so that plans can be activated when a pandemic arrives
DfES has produced guidance documents in consultation with other Government departments and external partners as part of the Government’s coordinated efforts to encourage prudent planning across all sectors, supporting the Department of Health, as lead Department, in preparing and planning for a possible pandemic.
The guidance is to support planning for higher education institutions, further education colleges, schools, childcare settings and other children’s services; there is also information for parents. Further information can be seen at www.teachernet.gov.uk/humanflupandemic
