title: Helping schools to manage continence problems.
abstract: The charity organisations Education and Resources for Improving Childhood Continence and PromoCon regularly receive feedback from health professionals, children and families suggesting that schools struggle to cope with childhood continence problems. This article outlines the responsibilities of schools to understand continence problems, implement effective policies and procedures to meet children's needs, and recognise those children's rights to be supported in achieving continence and independence. It also describes the development of a toolkit called The Right to Go.
