Education
Skin checks that fit a school budget
Cumulative UV from playground duty, sports coaching, and outdoor education adds up term after term. Flare gives schools an affordable way to connect staff with a clinician without disrupting the timetable.
Why schools struggle with screening
Education budgets are tight, and pulling a teacher out of class for a skin check means finding cover — which costs money and disrupts students. Most schools acknowledge UV is an occupational hazard for their staff, but can't justify the cost or logistics of a traditional clinic-based screening program. Grounds staff, sports coaches, and outdoor education coordinators accumulate significant UV exposure year after year, but they're rarely included in workplace health programs.
Who's affected
Staff with regular UV exposure in schools:
How it works
From phone to clinician in under two minutes.
Your worker snaps a photo
Workers open the Flare app on their phone, photograph a concerning spot, and mark where on their body it is. Under two minutes, from anywhere — on site, at home, or between rosters. No Wi-Fi or mobile signal? The app queues it securely and sends it automatically when connectivity returns.
It goes straight to their clinician
The photo and worker details are sent directly to the employer's nominated clinician — the doctor or practice they already trust. Nothing is stored on any server. The image passes through in transit only.
Worker gets confirmation instantly
The worker receives an email confirming their check was delivered to the clinician, with the clinician's name and contact details. The employer sees only aggregate delivery data — no photos, no health information.
“We always knew duty and sport were high-UV — we just couldn't afford a screening program until Flare.”
