I too am a parent who has a child with Narcolepsy and he is due to start secondary school in September. I recently provided a lot of information to the school about Narcolepsy and the additional needs of my son. At no stage did the staff advise that they had received correspondence regarding the treatment of students with Narcolepsy from the Department of Education. I will be at an induction evening this week and will ask the school reps what they have received. In the meantime I, like Barry, would like a copy of what has been sent to my son's school and will email Minister Bruton to request same.
