[QUOTE="laraloulouangel, post: 422676, member: 82132"] Hi My daughter is 8 and has had type 1 for 4 years. Her primary school have been great and very supportive, and every year she has moved up a class with a new teacher either my husband or I have provided training for them. This year however my daughters Diabetic Nurse has been involved and is insisting her insulin and needles be locked away under key, separate from the rest of her kit. This means at lunchtime she had to go to the school office to retrieve her insulin every lunchtime and obviously at the start and end of school. My daughter is only 8 and I think it is unfair on her and making her life just a bit more difficult having diabetes. Apparently the Diabetic Nurse has stated if the school does not adhere to this they will receive a failure under an Ofsted audit and subsequent report. Please could anyone advise whether they have encountered this with their children's schools? I have searched the net and cannot find anything which supports this rule. Regards Claire [/QUOTE]
