sun block in schools
does anyone know if theres a legal reason why schools cant apply sunblock to children if its supplied and consent is given by the mum/dad.
I asked the school and have just been told they cant but im concerned that a factor 50 applied at 8am isnt going to be affective at midday when the kids go into the playground and as my child is quite fair skinned hes prone to burn.

Time is one factor- teachers have enough to do in many schools without having to apply suncream.
Also, imagine a situation where a male teacher rubs suncream into a girl's legs and is accused of touching her in an inappropriate way.
Third, if the cream isn't applied properly and the child burns I can imagine some parents making a claim for damages

the private nursery my youngest grandson attends will apply suncream, as long as you supply it, but the nursery class the older one attends will only supervise the application of suncream! at the end day, he is just 4! he is not going to remember that he needs to apply his suncream before he goes outside tp play!!.........It's just crazy!.................
I would of thought that it was maybe something to do with if the kids have an allergic reaction,the teachers cannot be held responsible....however if another toddler squirts suncream at another and they react,its not the teachers fault so everything is fine and dandy!
Crazy world we live in.
