School wants my 10-year-old in nappies due to bowel issues

[CoffeeMama22]

My DD has been struggling with her bowels all her life, fully potty trained dry night and day. She is 10.
recently she has been off school due to a bowel obstruction. Awaiting surgical removal etc. due to over flow, pain etc she has been unable to attend school.

school has stated that I need to put my daughter in nappies, their words not mine!

shes 10 and never had any issues before.
im so angry right now, and really thinking about home schooling.

I have asked for medical reports from consultants etc, but for a 10 year old surely this would be embarrassing and backwards learning. I have personally asked my daughter and she has said no, but the school have said it’s effecting her education way too much. FYI I have been doing a lot of home Ed because the school haven’t sent her any school work yet.

Former teacher in charge of attendance here: the school won’t send work because it means they have authorised attendance. I would ask GP to sign DD off until surgery but be aware a GP can’t provide a fit note for a child and, I have experience of this, some schools demand a consultant/specialist letter. This goes against DFE guidance. Needless to say I’m NOT doing the job anymore, they wanted me to be barbaric.

Supporting pupils with medical conditions at school - GOV.UK https://share.google/RCwGKAsiNLC52om1X This is the government guidance if anyone needs it. It's statutory! Not optional.

Haven’t read the whole thread so apologies if this has been mentioned but is she eligible for hospital school?
