The £2 Tuition Hub

Recommended age 10+ **CONTENT WARNING: These lessons teach about real life cases seen in GP & emergency small animal veterinary practices. There may be content containing information / images / videos about; anatomy (including male & female anatomy), dissection, surgery, blood, wounds, infections, parasites, vaccinations, needles & syringes, drugs, animals that are poorly / may seem distressed, outcomes that may include the animal dying or being euthanased. If you do not want your child exposed to this or feel your child may be upset by this content, then please do not purchase the lessons. Please also be aware, I DO NOT encourage children to practice any examination skills on animals / pets as they can be easily scared at being handled a diVerent way at home, and I wouldn’t want your child(ren) to get bitten or scratched. They can easily practice most examination skills on themselves, a human volunteer or a teddy, and I will describe how to do this in my lessons. **

In this block we will follow a patient from when they first visit the vets, all the way through to finding out what’s wrong with them and managing their condition. We will learn about how the digestive system works and see an example of how it can go wrong. Students are encouraged to put their detective heads on to follow the clues to a diagnosis & appropriate treatment. We’ll learn some veterinary skills and do some important calculations along the way and even get chance to do some experimentation!

Examples of topics covered throughout the block: Numeracy, literacy, veterinary terminology, anatomy, physiology, pathology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, art, craft & design, clinical skills, following instructions, critical thinking, problem solving, communication skills, ethics, animal welfare, general pet care
