Launched in 2016, Paediatric SCRIPT was created by a group of paediatric trainees who had used SCRIPT during their Foundation training and felt a similar resource was required for paediatric prescribing, as studies showed that the incidence of prescribing errors in paediatric in-patients is around 13%. The development of the programme was led by junior doctors, working together with the SCRIPT team at the University of Birmingham, OCB Media Ltd, and Health Education England.
Each module takes around 30 – 60 minutes to complete. All course materials are based on the RCPCH curriculum. They have been authored by a team of expert healthcare professionals, and are regularly reviewed and updated.
