Food throwing in schools and allergies

Has anyone had to deal with food throwing in schools when they have a child with allergies? (Secondary and primary)
How do they deal with it /stop it happening/ discipline children who do it?

Not sure what is reasonable to expect/what to suggest/where to sign point schools for advice? I can't see anything on allergy UK /anaphylaxis UK specifically on this point ? They cover allergy bullying but this feels like more generalised food throwing that just happens to put allergic children at risk

(My son has already had one severe reaction when food was thrown at him when he was younger)

I'm a midday supervisor and I absolutely do have a zero tolerance approach to food throwing. I'm absolutely amazed that your school are so lax on it!
