Guest guest Posted May 18, 2001 Report Share Posted May 18, 2001 Sam and Joe's new school are very relaxed about it - we just have to sign a form that says whether we will allow matron to give appropriate medical attention/treatment - and there is a space for things that we would not allow (I couldn't think of anything)..very pleased that it is one less thing to worry about. It is an Independent school that is fortunate to have a Matron though - wonder if they operate to different rules than State schools? They certainly won't do anything at Sam's current (state) school.
