Pa ystyriaeth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i roi i gyflwyno canllawiau statudol ar gyfer ysgolion yng Nghymru, yn debyg i "Gyfraith Benedict" yn Lloegr, i wella diogelwch alergedd i ddisgyblion, gan gynnwys gofynion ar gyfer polisïau alergedd ysgol gyfan, hyfforddiant staff, cynlluniau gofal iechyd unigol a mynediad at chwistrellwyr adrenalin awtomatig brys?
The Welsh Government is aware of developments in England regarding ‘Benedict’s Law’ and is currently reviewing relevant statutory and supplementary guidance, including guidance on the use of emergency adrenaline auto-injectors in maintained schools. We will consider Benedict’s Law, alongside wider developments across the UK, to inform future policy in Wales.
In the meantime, Welsh Government sets out clear expectations for maintained schools and local authorities through its statutory guidance, supporting learners with healthcare needs in schools statutory guidance.
We have also published specific guidance for schools on the use of emergency adrenaline auto-injectors to treat anaphylaxis, supporting schools to respond effectively to allergic reactions and help keep learners safe.
