Skin cancer screening that fits 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 screen staff 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
You provide the roster. We handle the rest.
Your worker snaps a photo
You provide your worker contact details and we send each worker an SMS with a link to their personal screening profile. They photograph the area of concern and mark the location on a body map. No downloads, no appointments, no time off site.
Our clinical team reviews it
Each submission goes through an image quality check, then nurse practitioner assessment. If a concern is identified, it's escalated to a GP for review and sign-off. Your team does nothing — the clinical pathway runs independently.
Results go straight to the worker
Within 48 hours, the worker receives their outcome. If a concern is flagged, a GP-signed referral letter goes to their phone — ready for a Medicare-covered consultation. You receive aggregate participation data only.
