<p>The Government understands how important it is that children with medical conditions
are supported to enjoy a full education. That is why the Government introduced the
duty, under Section 100 of the Children and Families Act 2014, to require governing
bodies to make arrangements to support pupils with medical conditions, and has provided
statutory guidance outlining schools’ responsibilities in this area.</p><p>Whilst
the Department for Communities and Local Government holds no responsibility in the
area, the Government continues to work with organisations such as the Health Conditions
in Schools Alliance to help raise further awareness of the duty on schools, and have
recently promoted the duty through the Department for Education’s social media channels.</p><p>
