My DS who is 7 has had a number of absences form school connected with his constipation issues.
Althrough half term after an x ray at the hospital he was put on an emergancy dose of movivcol up to 12 sachets a day and decreasing for the foreseeable future until the problem is solved.
At least since the x ray we know why DS has been having issues with toileting but the school in the past have always put it down to laziness.
His absence has been an issue in the past and the school make me feel guilty for keeping him off when he is unwell because they say it reflects badly on the ofstead report.
What I wanted to ask was he has a statement of 22 hours a week and if he is off school for medical reasons does his absence get recorded as anothers child or is it recorded differently?
