Blaenau Gwent council has implemented a new policy requiring parents to change their children out of pull-ups and nappies at school, a decision that some believe is unfair and tantamount to abuse. One in four children enter school in Wales and England not fully toilet trained, a trend worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. While some parents support the policy, others criticize it for its lack of consideration for individual circumstances, especially for neurodivergent children. Education experts urge local authorities to address the increasing need for toileting support in schools.
