Our primary school says if children need medicine at specific times 'pop' in & DIY

[wonkywillow]

Surely this penalises busy working parents, with occupations where they can't just 'pop' in? Or a parent who simply has other pressing commitments..

Can schools actually do this? They seem to be negating their responsibilities towards providing education and support for children with long term medical conditions that require regular medication.

please stick to the point.

Which point would that be, zzzzz?

No it wasn’t, but there’s very little I can do if you feel it was.

Classic non apologetic language, 'Sorry you feel...' You are not sorry for anything you said. You are sorry that something occurred that you think is my fault. However I don't just feel it. It is plain to interpret and I'm not the only one who has picked up on this.

Have you a huge number of examples of them doing anything else in, say, the last 5 to 10 years?

There are examples referenced in this thread. One example is too many.

Apology accepted, zzzzz.

Maybe everything else is just lost in translation. It is like we are speaking different languages. It has left me questioning my ability to understand plain English. That's from someone who studied English Literature and Language, to degree level, including translating Medieval texts and a year doing linguistics. As well as some one who has taught English. I've also had articles published.
